• December Craziness

  There’s so much to share and recently not enough time to digest my experiences and thoughts. Saturday was our day for reflection on what happened to our nation on December 7, 1941, Pearl Harbor Day. Since our landslide Election in November, that Red Tide has been happening. To this day four nearly 5 years ago…

• Sunday Morning

  My last post was Thursday and the pain was a lot for a good round of 36 hours. Plus I had a girl with a headache during the second night. So there were two nights of little to no sleep back to back. On Sunday morning then I had not fully gotten back to my…

• Interview

  What does this word mean and what kind of word is it? Let’s start with what kind of word it is first. While looking at the Merriam-Webster Dictionary it states that it is not just a noun but also a verb. Which means it is a thing, place, idea, person, animal, action or quality. Plus…

• The Indy Sky Line

  In the past two weeks I have been to Indy twice. Earlier in the summer though we went to the Zoo, but I do not remember seeing the skyline like this. In all the years I have been to Indianapolis as a child visiting the various hospitals and even when we said goodbye to Uncle…

• A Musical Voice For Americans

  Earlier this morning I caught one of the many patriotic songs of a beloved musician and hero. There are a top ten list of his songs that are theme songs for the military and Veterans as well as their families. These musical albums are priceless. His death was in March, but I still feel his…

• Observing the D-Day Memorials

  For the past three years I have gotten most of my news from online sources. I don’t put much stock in the name brand news stations Fox isn’t the best but it’s better than CNN, CBS, and all the alphabet soup of hack has been political pundits. When I went to find anything about the…

• The Day Before

  Today was a nice day. It was good for our walk this morning and then this afternoon it turned. A front came in and it has been raining since, whether lightly or somewhat harder. I know it’s not completely the same, but I think about 1944 and what that day was like. It was a…

• Veterans Responding

  My time with Veterans has been special. My great-Uncles, my Grandpa’s and my friends from church. I have had some wonderful conversations with World War II, Korean and Vietnam War Veterans. So when I see anything special dealing with our American Treasures, our Veterans I tend to tear up. Just a few minutes ago I…

• Forgotten Americans… Again

  This photo is so beautiful and shows what a leader looks like. A lion with a lamb is how life was in the Garden of Eden and it’s how life will be in the future. The Lion of Judah comes to mind that name depicting how fierce our God is for us is people. Never…
