VETERAN'S DAY

 First of all I want to thank you for all the kind things you wrote on my last post.

They brought tears to my eyes.

Lynne and her daughter had a peaceful night and now its on to a new day.

Today is Veteran's Day here in the USA.

I am so thankful for all who served and those who gave their lives for our Freedom.

My Father in Law was a very proud Major in the Army.  Loved his country and gave his best to the endeavor.  

He retired from the Army and lived a good, active long life.  He has been gone for many years but his legacy lives on.

Dave's Dad is on the far left.  He joined the Army at a very young age.






ALWAYS BE GRATEFUL

ALWAYS BE KIND



HONOR

wonderful tribute to your father in law. Saw your colorful trees in the above post. Nice that you got rain. We are hoping snow doesn't start too early this season. Already predicting a little bit on November 17 or so. and then wind.
