Can’t beat this weather huh. Isn’t it terrific. I actually have straight hair today. LOL!

74 and dry with mostly sun is weather that's tough to beat.

Love your display! I bought some red silk geraniums and white baby’s breath and a small American flag for my husband’s grave. Got my things at Walmart....doesn’t pay to put too expensive flowers at the cemetary. The little American flag had a red ball at the top of the little pole....(stick). I try to keep a flag down there for him. He was my little Navy guy when I married him. I always told him I fell in love with that uniform!

That is so sweet, Meg!

[GodBlessUSA]

Thanks Jaycee :)
That is beautiful tribute to your husband. A hero Sailor. I will be thinking of our Heros, like your husband, and their families...like you, this 4th, with great admiration and appreciation. God Bless.
Hugs!

Are you a Democrat, Republican or Texan ?
Here is a little test that will help you decide.
The answer can be found by posing the following question:

You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two small children. Suddenly, an Islamic Terrorist with a huge knife comes around the corner, locks eyes with you, screams obscenities, praises Allah, raises the knife,and charges at you.
You are carrying a Glock cal 40, and you are an expert shot.

You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family. What do you do?

...............................................................

Democrat's Answer

Well, that’s not enough information to answer the question!
Does the man look poor! Or oppressed?
Have I ever done anything to him that would inspire him to attack?
Could we run away?
What does my wife think?
What about the kids?
What does the law say about this situation?
Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does this send to society and to my children?
Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be content just to wound me?
Should I call 9-1-1?
Why is this street so deserted?
We need to raise taxes, have paint and weed day and make this a happier, healthier street that would discourage such behavior.

• Full Strawberry Moon -
June This name was universal to every Algonquin tribe.
However, in Europe they called it the Rose Moon. Also
because the relatively short season for harvesting
strawberries comes each year during the month of
June . . . the full Moon that occurs during that
month was christened for the strawberry!

I was posting an answer and lost it by minimizing it to look at something else. Hope you don’t get both. What I said was that the picture is beautiful and I had heard that limerick, quote, etc. many times by my sailor husband. G. B. and I were just talking about my little sailor boy and how cute he was when I was 18 and he was in that little skinny uniform. Those whites had to be ironed so perfectly and I learned how to do it all. He is in Heaven tonight and at peace. Was telling G. B. about the flowers and flag I had gotten for his resting place. It is only three blocks from my house. But, I am doing great. He has been gone a little over three years and its hard to believe. God does make it where we can live again and laugh again. I have even dated a few times......can you believe it? I didn’t mean to write a book!!!

[Lady Jag]

That is lovely. Thank you for sharing and thank you for your sacrifices for our country. You are fortunate to have so many wonderful memories.
