Pour the coffee while I tell you about a quote I read recently at the end of someone's blog. It said, "If you can read this, thank a teacher. If you can read it in English, thank a soldier."
HJ, It's warm today but believe it or not, as recently as yesterday afternoon, I was wearing a lightweight sweater over my sleeveless shirt. Sans the hail, the weather here has been marvelous. Come out and see us!
What a beautiful tribute! I've been looking around, and sadly, it seems that not many bloggers or folks on facebook realize - or even care about - the importance of this day. Oh,some do, but they sure seem few and far between. Even though I'm in Oz right now, I've taken the day off work, and I'm flying my flags with pride! Gob Bless them all...
