Outstanding presentation, dutchess. Thank You.
Looking forward to a grand day tomorrow with my grandson at school. That will be followed by a trip downtown to watch the Veteran's Day Parade. I plan to close out the evening by joining a candlelight vigil honoring Veterans and our military members currently serving.
If I may, from all of us who have served in the Armed Forces, Thank you one and all for messages of gratitude. It's very humbling. We are a proud bunch - proud of our service, and proud of each other.

Hand Salute!

Just beautiful, dutchess and Billie! A beautiful tribute and a beautiful presentation.

I am thankful, particularly on this Veteran's Day, that we have this place where we can express our love and gratitude to our our country, our military and our veterans.....this place in cyber-space where we can link hands and hearts and thank God for those who put their lives on the line for us.

A beautiful presentation Dutchess! Thank you. Armistice Day/Veterans Day is a hard day for me to forget - the reason being that my parents were married on November 11, 1944, they would have been married 59 years if they were still alive.

Dutchess, I wanted to tell you how beautiful today's post is, (and what do I have to do to get you to take the full credit and leave my name off the top? I think you leave it there just to annoy T Man!) :) The pictures you chose to illustrate this wonderful tribute today are absolutely awesome! Thank you for being such an important part of the Finest team. I know where your heart is today.

Fly your flags proudly today.
We salute you, America's Veterans!
