Howdy, Kathy.

Did your mom and her friends have a good time this afternoon?

Are you finally getting a little peace now that the get-together is behind y’all?

Howdy do, Conor. *Hugz*

Were you able to do much in your gardens today or is it too wet from the storm system that rolled across the country this week?

No dirt time today, unfortunately. It was the first day we could have actually gotten out into the garden, but i had errands all day,

He Who blessed our forefathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - may He bless the fighters of the Israel Defense Force, who stand guard over our land and the cities of our G-d from the border of the Lebanon to the desert of Egypt, and from the Great Sea unto the approach of the Aravah, on the land, in the air, and on the sea.

May HASHEM cause the enemies who rise up against us to be struck down before them. May the Holy One, Blessed is He, preserve and rescue our fighting men from every trouble and distress and from every plague and illness, and may He send blessing and success in their every endeavor.

May He lead our enemies under their sway and may He grant them salvation and crown them with victory. And may there be fulfilled for them the verse: For it is Hashem, your G-d, Who goes with you to battle your enemies for you to save you.

G-d bless and keep your children safe, Alouette.

Happy Mothers’ Day
To All Mothers Of The Canteen!


"Mother Machree"
Sung by John McCormack
(Click)


There's a spot in my heart,
Which no colleen may own.
There's a depth in my soul,
Never sounded or known;
There's a place in my mem'ry,
My life, that you fill,
No other can take it,
No one ever will.

Sure, I love the dear silver
That shines in your hair,
And the brow that's all furrowed,
And wrinkled with care.
I kiss the dear fingers,
So toil-worn for me,
Oh, God bless you and keep you,
Mother Machree.

Ev'ry sorrow or care
In the dear days gone by,
Was made bright by the light
Of the smile in your eye,
Like a candle that's set
In the window at night,
Your fond love has cheered me
And guided me right.

Sure, I love the dear silver
That shines in your hair,
And the brow that's all furrowed,
And wrinkled with care.
I kiss the dear fingers,
So toil-worn for me,
Oh, God bless you and keep you,
Mother Machree.

We didn’t come home with a trophy, if that’s what you mean. But that’s not why I show the car. It was a beautiful day to be out, lots of people milling around, and lots of other sweet rides to admire. Had a blast and THAT’S why I show the car.

But tail feathers are draggin’ tonight. LOL! I only got around 3 hours of sleep.

Bummer you didn’t get any dirt time today. It stinks when errands get in the way, doesn’t it?

Sounds like you had a good time!

Son and I had a good visit. He brought me a nice USS Arizona Memorial cap and a nice lithograph reproduction of USS Missouri, where the surrender ceremony was performed.

We had a nice visit.

Wouldn't blame you if you conked out early :-)

Would you happen to have a few pictures of the show-car to share with us?

It was a good time though the turnout was down a little from previous years. There were three other car shows today within 50 miles of here. I almost went to one 25 miles away but was too sleepy to drive that far this morning. Played it safe and just drove to the closest one (7 miles) instead. hee!

Glad y’all had a good time today. You’d mentioned he was going to bring a cap home for you but that lithograph reproduction of USS Missouri as well? Cool!

I’ll probably conk out earlier than usual but it’s still a ways off. :-)

I wish I did have some pix from the car show but sleepy-head me walked out the door without the camera this morning. DUH!! I knew I should have put it in my purse last night but nooooooo. Didn’t do it. :-(

These things happen. I walked out the door earlier this evening for our Parish Spring Gala and left my checkbook on the table. So much for the auction.

Oh no! And there was probably at least one item you really would have liked to bid on too.
