Happy Fathers Day 2014!!

WHAT MAKES A DAD?

God took the strength of a mountain,
The majesty of a tree,
The warmth of a summer sun,
The calm of a quiet sea,
The generous soul of nature,
The comforting arm of night,
The wisdom of the ages,
The power of the eagle's flight,
The joy of a morning in spring,
The faith of a mustard seed,
The patience of eternity,
And the depth of a family need.

Then God combined these qualities,
And then there was nothing more to add,
He knew His masterpiece was complete,
And so, He called it - Dad.

[ConorMacNessa]

GOD BLESS AND PROTECT OUR TROOPS AND OUR BELOVED NATION!

Must retire for the evening – an early Mass Call
awaits me in the morning!

For Every Morning Brings A Noble Chance,
And Every Chance Brings Forth A Noble Knight!

The Bugler, his grim visage replete with an evil sneer,
already mounts the parapet.

Soldiers of the Greatest Generation
Stand The Watch Tonight!

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

Okay, that little vignette kept me up after my valediction! My personal fave:



1954 Chevrolet Bel Air Convertible

I liked it when I was six years old and I like it now!

GIMME!!!

Happy 239th Birthday To The
United States Army!
Then it’s hi! hi! hey! The Army’s on its way. Count off the cadence loud and strong;
For where’er we go, You will always know That The Army Goes Rolling Along."

[Kathy in Alaska]

Who'd a thunk it? I've become my Father, if not my Grandfather. When I was three years old living with my Gavin Family in Aldan, PA, my Uncle Joe Gavin and Uncle Tom Gavin would ride me all around the region in their big old Hudson convertibles. After a few trips, I knew the way to the places we frequented and they would ask me for directions, which I gave them freely - Lord help them if they took a wring turn!

When Mary studied at St. Joe's in Philly, as my Dad did before, I went over some of the old ways - I still remember them 60 years later. Those Gavin Uncles were second Fathers to me - both gone to their rewards - I think often of them and raise my glass to them this Fathers Day!
