Thanks for the link, dfwgator.
Howdy, Kathy.
Did you manage to get a lot accomplished today? Did your mom get some time with her flowers?
Welcome to the Canteen, HokieMom, and thank you for the link to the National D-Day Memorial.
And you have the wheels to do it. LOL!
You must be on the west side of I-65. LOL! All the rain seems to be over there but won’t cross to our side. Our neck o’ the woods is what Kathy was referring to as to not getting much rain. We finally got a little this week and it totaled more than April and May combined.
Indeed, the longest day.
Good evening, Sand...((HUGS)...God Bless our military men and women.
You and Charlie doing well? Still batching it?
Fnd thr I-10 E to AZ90. Then SO on AZ 0 TO HY92, then you’re close.
Good evening, Don Corleone....you are so right. God bless them all.
What they did was extraordinary!
Thanks, Repeal, for the great picture. Our troops!
Thanks, Mac, for the “missing” verse to our National Anthem.
June 6th was always a special day in my household. Although my Dad served in the Pacific Theater, he always told us about D-Day, every year, and we would look at pictures in the large “coffee-table-book-sized” LIFE’s Picture History of WW2.
I still have that book, and when I lived in Florida, I happened to meet and chat with Gen. Paul Tibbets, who autographed it for me!
I had the honor last year of visiting Normandy and going to the American Cemetery. It truly is one of the most hallowed places on the face of the Earth. Going through the Normandy region, American flags are everywhere, and I can attest, that the French there love Americans.
Howdy, radu! Did you have a good day herding cats today? :)
I have that book too, a great pictorial history.
My Dad also served in the Pacific. I was always enthralled when he described the pure joy and patriotism Americans felt after V-E and V-J Days.
We watched every episode of Victory At Sea.
Howdy, LUV.
Been a quiet day. Went to visit Hubby’s aunt for a while and that’s about it.
The kittehs have been surprisingly quiet for a new moon. Now that I’ve said that, they’ll probably all wake up and go on a mad tear. LOL!
Did you get a funnel cake this evening?

Son just left a bit ago after hanging out for awhile.
It was nice visiting with daughter too, she's a busy girl but I'll journey to Seattle to see her in a few weeks.
I'm fading fast now, hope your Monday is fine!
