My Dragonfly and Me
If I could be a Dragon Fly
and wing my way through the sky
I would never be shy
just me and my Dragon Fly!
By moonlight we ride the wind
chase the comets tail for fun
by day we would hide from the sun
our fragile wings would come undone
On darkest nights we would use
fireflies as our guide
we would dip and we would glide
through the heavens open wide
and scatter diamonds in the night sky
my Dragon Fly and me...
And we would wing past our lovers
silent in the night...
to kiss their face in our flight
much to their surprise and delight
my Dragon Fly and me in sight...
Such a view do we share
away up here in the air
of breezes soft through our hair
my Dragon Fly and me a pair...

All time low last night, tied an old record of 42F!! Humidity 86%.
It was 50F when I got up this morning.
To: Soaring Feather
Hopefully, you slept well. But, I guess we have to give all the credit to Al Bore for this weather,

Slept like a new born baby! A two quilt night for sure. ;)
Must be his fault everything is!

With all of that hot air from the rhetoric he spouts, I can believe it. Got to run for a few. Catch you later.

Two things they teach Marines:
1. Keep your priorities in order
2. Know when to act without hesitation.
A college professor, an avowed atheist, was teaching his class. He shocked
several of his students when he flatly stated he was going to prove there
was no God. Addressing the ceiling he shouted: "God, if you are real, then
I want you to knock me off this platform. I'll give you 15 minutes!" The
lecture room fell silent. You could have heard a pin fall. Ten minutes went
by. Again he taunted God, saying, "Here I am, God. I'm still waiting." His
count-down got down to the last couple of minutes when a Marine - just
released from active duty and newly registered in the class - walked up to
the professor, hit him full force in the face, and sent him tumbling from
his lofty platform. The professor was out cold! The students were shocked
and babbled in confusion. The young Marine took a seat in the front row
and sat silent. The class fell silent.....waiting. Eventually, the
professor came to, shaken. He looked at the young Marine in the front row.
When the professor regained his senses and could speak he asked: "What's the
matter with you? Why did you do that?" The young Marine answered, "God was
busy. He sent me."
One Nation Under God.

It’s very good. Great graphic also.
Patriotism does come to our mind what a fabulous nation we live in; while not perfect, (but what is) it’s the best form of government we could possible have, made possible by our brave men and women for over 200 years to keep it intact.

It is a dandy for sure.
We can thank Chef “Tude” for it. ;)
To: Soaring Feather
WOO HOO, I have just noticed that real quotation marks are showing up now instead of the inch mark symbol!!
“”
Oh will that inhibit our posting of graphics which need the inch mark symbol??
