Summer Soltice a Survivor

If you are reading this, we have made it to the summer soltise.  Remember those long cold days of winter, when the sun didn't show its face for many days?  Now it is as far away as you can get and the best time for being out as long as possible with it light at night. 

Yes, it will get hot, but relish it like a pickle in brine.  Bask in it and appreciate all those family reunions, ball games, water sports and more. 

Flag Flying Day

The gentle breeze made today's Flag Day perfect for flying the red, white and blue.  Seeing all the patriotic citizens and businesses made me happy to be an American. 

What gratitude I feel for those original signers, statemen and sowers, that sacrificed much to be courageous enough to begin the process of freedom.  Thank you.
