and one silly holiday to celebrate -

~~~~~~~And~~~~~~~


International “Talk Like a Pirate” Day

And, last but not least...

Have a fabulous FRiday, everyone! I have put the coffee on and opened the doors to Amy's Place, but won't be able to be around much today. I'll try to stop in this afternoon if time permits.

Great things for celebration today. That “missing man table ceremony” is just so touching. We always must remember our Men and Women in the Military.

And some fun things too.

Loved the nice graphics describing each of these celebrations.Thank you, Lori.

nice opening Lori.. love the festive post!

missed both of Sarah’s interviews on Hannity. Hoping that I can find a link to video see them. I had bible study on Wed & cancer support ground on Thurs.

Lovely COOLISH day here.. want to try to get to Lake Erie as it is sunny & the dogs love romping the shore & I can give them both baths ..

Football/band tonight. Prefer this weather over the 30s for football!

hope all are having a splendid Friday & I will wear Red all day!

Mornin’ MB.

Thanks for the beautiful POW/MIA presentation. Seems my glasses or monitor get all blurry everytime I read The Missing Man text.

Busy, busy day tomorrow. Starting out with a Veteran’s Group get-together at church in the morning discussing the Veteran’s Day program scheduled on Nov 9th. A veteran’s choir has been formed to sing two songs... “Eternal Father, Strong to Save (Navy Hymn) and “Mansions of the Lord.” So far, about 50 vets are signed up for the choir (been practicing the bass part). Hope to get one of our daughters to video the service.

Speaking of daughters, our youngest has a birthday which we will celebrate at the race track in the afternoon. SIL is in first place in his division for the season. Tommorrow’s 2 races complete the season so we’ll be cheering him on.

Gotta go bake some birthday cupcakes... wonder if I can find a RED apron to wear?!?

Have a GREAT weekend.

I have seen the POW/MIA Missing Man Table Ceremony performed several times, and each time it has moved me. Thank you for posting it.
