Happy Birthday America. As Ashley, Gail and Roshumba prove in the above photo, SI Swimsuit is not afraid to get patriotic. While the magazine is famous for its exotic locales and far-reaching destinations - the 2013 issue featured pics from all seven continents - its often at its best when it stays in the good old US of A. So on this Independence Day, SwimDaily celebrates America with this gallery of  the best swimsuit photos from locations within the United States.
