LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX News) — Lexington painted the town red, white and blue this Fourth of July — not only to mark America's 250th birthday, but also to celebrate freedom. The annual Fourth of July parade took over downtown Main Street, drawing crowds for floats, live music, food, games and fireworks. "July fourth means freedom," Beth Freeman said. Freeman, a Navy veteran, reflected on what the holiday means to her and to those who have served.
