Thanks for the cute graphics, GeeBee.
I will show these to Marissa when she gets home.

I'm hoping this will inspire her to continue to work hard for good grades.

Have a Warm Furry Wednesday.

REST IN PEACE, FALLEN BROTHER!

LCpl Dennis James Burrow, USMC, KIA Afghanistan, 7AUG2009

I have fought a good fight,
I have finished my course,
I have kept the faith.
2 Timothy 4:7 (KJV)

Eternal Father, Strong to Save



Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in peace!
We who remain hold you in high honor.
Rest, fallen brother, in this sacred precinct;
We who remain keep this place sacred.
Rest, fallen brother, among these, your comrades;
We who remain keep the watch.
Rest, fallen brother, amid these who heeded the Nation’s call;
We who remain press the fight forward in your name.
Rest, fallen brother, lay down thy burden;
We who remain have taken up the torch.
Rest in Peace, fallen brother, rest in eternal peace!

Golden Wedding Anniversary

A couple was celebrating their golden wedding anniversary. Their domestic
tranquility had long been the talk of the town. A local newspaper reporter was
inquiring as to the secret of their long and happy marriage.

“Well, it dates back to our honeymoon,” explained the man. “We visited the
Grand Canyon and took a trip down to the bottom on the canyon by pack mule.
We hadn't gone too far when my wife's mule stumbled. My wife quietly said,
‘That's once.’

“We proceeded a little further and the mule stumbled again. Once more my wife
quietly said, ‘That's twice.’

“We hadn't gone a half-mile when the mule stumbled the third time. My wife
quietly removed a revolver from her pocket and shot the mule dead.

“I started to protest over her treatment of the mule when she looked at me
and quietly said, ‘That's once’.”

"We've lived happily ever after, since."

Thank you, (((yorkie)))...I had saved both my graphics months ago..waiting for the right day..

This lion one makes me smile.
;o)
I download graphics almost daily..and need to make room!
I am editing resizing and deleting files..I have lots of 2 to 4 MB pictures from my grandson’s last deployment that are duplicates or crop nicely I have his picture file down to 600 MB..I have a long way to go. I did delete night firing exercises that were all in green..infra red? photos and videos)LOL
Some are very interesting...some mean something only to someone on the ship..and some are pretty shots of the sunsets and sunrises, clouds.
I am staying up late, late doing this..My “normal” sleep pattern did not last long.

[The Mayor]

Amen!

[MEG33]

Start em off right, I say! LOL

[JustAmy]

Good Afternoon, Billie. Thank you.

I've never seen a red orchid either but I thought it was soo pretty.

Hope you are enjoying a Warm Fuzzy Wednesday.

[yorkie]

"But, by night zephyrs hint of other things
like silken women, even jeweled golden rings

Just over the next horizon, perhaps they await
there in a ship, if you hurry and are not late"

[JustAmy]

I still have many ping needing replies but I’m starting to drag.

The sleepless night and early morning is catching up with me.

See you in a bit!
