Used to be a Decoration Day.
Here is a song by Flatt and Scruggs

Bouquet In Heaven
When it’s decoration day in Heaven
There’s a bouquet I’m longing to see
There’s a flower somewhere in the bouquet
That means all the world to me

Now she left the old homeplace is lonely
Since mother has been called away
And I know I can never more see her
‘TiI we meet on that decoration day.

I remember the night the angles called her
To live on that beautiful shore
It left us so lonely here without her
It can never be like home anymore.

Happy birthday to the Army on the 14th.

Today, June 12, is my birthday and my cat’s birthday too. Two bitchy ladies who understand and love each other.

Good evening, radu...all finished mowing for the week?

Did it get really hot?

A goodly breeze has come up here, and now the sun is thinking about breaking thru. They teased us with a little rain, but none here.

The Only Red We Want Is the Red We've Got (In the Old Red, White & Blue--Ralph Flanagan (1950)

It's the right red, not the wrong red.
It's a brave red, not a slave red.
