A good day, thanks! It's been threatening rain here all day as well - I wish it would go ahead - the pollen is ferocious today!

My favorite TV show? Hard to say, there have been so many great ones since I started watching over sixty years ago.
One great one that stands out is the British miniseries "Tinker Tailor, Soldier, Spy" with Alec Guinness. After many years, I finally broke down and bought the DVD recently.
Another fave - "Fawlty Towers."
Going way back to childhood, "Ramar of the Jungle" - Jon Hall.

Freedom Isnt Free
By Cdr. Kelly Strong USCG (ret)
I watched the flag pass by one day, It fluttered in the breeze. A young Marine saluted it, And then he stood at ease. I looked at him in uniform So young, so tall, so proud, With hair cut square and eyes alert Hed stand out in any crowd.
Eternal Father, Strong to Save (Click)
I thought how many men like him Had fallen through the years. How many died on foreign soil How many mothers tears? How many pilots planes shot down? How many died at sea How many foxholes were soldiers graves? No, freedom isnt free.
Taps (Click)
I heard the sound of Taps one night, When everything was still, I listened to the bugler play And felt a sudden chill. I wondered just how many times That Taps had meant Amen, When a flag had covered a coffin. Of a brother or a friend.
I thought of all the children, Of the mothers and the wives, Of fathers, sons and husbands With interrupted lives, I thought about a graveyard At the bottom of the sea Of unmarked graves in Arlington, No, freedom isnt free.
God Of Our Fathers (Click)
Many Thanks To ExTexasRedhead For Finding This Poem!

I’ve been watching Downton Abbey via Amazon Prime, and it’s very entertaining. I like British drama. :)

I haven't been watching much TV lately. I'm not familiar with the Downton Abbey series, although my sister and her husband enjoy it. The last BBC material I can recall watching was the Sharpe's Rifles, etc.
Before that, I enjoyed Poldark, I Claudius, Brideshead Revisited, and others.
So much of what is on the Tube now is to my mind total garbage. I'd rather find my recreation elsewhere, like here.
