I know what you mean, I used to live down there. The traffic has gotten so bad that I can't even stand to go down there to go shopping anymore. Now that's BAD! LOL!

" Thats sad but true! "

Living in the west and trying to make a living farming for many years, we have seen what the enviro-nuts, the ESA and the EPA have done to the economy and the way of life in the west. Their motto is 'get off the land so we can have it for our interests'! Who cares about the American Farmer? Better get off my soapbox. LOL

Billie thanks so much!

What a great picture of Logan, Diver Dave's grandson.

We all love our children at what ever age from babies to functional adults. When those grandchildren are loaned to us by God, something special happens. Also, you realize that you have to start taking out the lefty garbage to make sure that these special gifts/loans from God will have the same opportunities what we have had.

One quick story about flags and grandchildren. About 2 months after 9/11 we visited our Son, DIL, and grandchildren. I was met at the door by my Grand Daughter, with her Pink Walking hat on and wearing her pink walking shoes. She hugged me and said, "Walk Papa!"

So we started walking in the neighborhood and she was pointing out the flags. We discussed as much as you can with a two year old about the flag. I taught her how to salute the flag, and she did a great job.

Flash forward, a few weeks, she and her family came to visit us and stay over for Thanksgiving. She wanted walk around our house. I saw her looking around the house and looking at me in a funny way. Then she said, "Where's Papa's flag.?" All we had were some small flags as flags had been sold out in our home area since 9/12.

I finally got a big flag and on their next trip up, her parents showed her the flag as they pulled into the driveway. It hangs out on staff by our carport for all to see each day.

I went out and she was standing and saluting it. I joined her.

This morning that flag went out when I got up as it has every morning since I got it. On holidays, like this week, I have another flag even bigger that goes up for the holidays. She really likes seeing the two flags.

Thanks again, Billie and Aquamarine. Thank you Jim Robinson for making Free Repbublic available and for what it means to us.

Great work in helping to rid America of one of the worst lefty cancers in America, Jihad Cindy!

You are a special Angel, and Dan is a very lucky man!

You're very welcome. I enjoyed reading about your grandaughter and the flag. She's very lucky to have a Grampa like yourself. If only all the Grampas were fighting the lefties as hard as you do we could take this great nation back!

Ooooohhhh! Just another reason to get my blood pressure up over stroke level!

The mere mention of his name or the sight of his DemoncRat face makes me instantly ill!

{{{{{{{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}}}}}}}}} That's what keeps us "glued together" at FR - a common cause!!

Thanks JL!

We hope to be in SW Oregon in the latter part of Sept to the first part of Oct.. If the Watermelon Green Jihadists haven't burnt it down due to their agendas.

Bandon is one of our favorite places to visit, walk around, shop and eat at some incredible places. Some of the restaurants get the seafood delivered right from the ocean to their kitchens. If you want fresher seafood, you would have to go out on a boat catch it and make Sushi out of it.
