Carl was irritated the people felt it important that I meet the mother of a fallen Marine after the parade. He felt it was thoughtless for both her and I.

The wind was a bit strong and I suspect we are all suffering from sinus troubles today from the dust, but all in all it was a good show with great results. The day started out at Buck and Pam's place. Pam introduced us to her former brother-in-law, Greg.... Sign in to see full entry.This Is What Freedom Is All AboutThis is what it's all about for me. Not going to say much here, except up front is Kenny Jones with Carl (we have some hopeful news on the babies will write on that later) and in the back is Greg. Greg returned home about two weeks ago and by the time the day was done we have set up a fund for the...

So, if I miss you before the holiday (at least those in the US LOL) remember we are celebrating our freedom and there are men and women in harms way who willingly put themselves out there to ensure that we will be here 230 years from now, still...
