Good thoughts--Stunning photo of our beautiful flag!
Beautiful post Betty! I love seeing our flag blowing in the wind.
Gorgeous picture of our flag.. I also love the quote..
:)
Happy Memorial Day to you and yours, dear Betty! We don't have Memorial Day here in Canada...instead we have Remembrance Day on Nov. 11th:-) xox
Love the picture of the flag!!
Hello darlin'...noted 4sisters on my blog, too...it's a miracle what prayer can do....amy is doll, and you 2xoxoxox
Happy Memorial Day to you! And while its almost over for this year it is a holiday we could and should celebrate year round!
I want also to thank you for stopping by my blog and leaving such a wonderful comment about The Old Boat. That is a very personal and deeply meaningful post for me. The man that is gone ... the one that built the boat and will never be back .... is/was my father. The boat is a picture I just found .... its not his ... but it reminded me a lot of the ones my father built.
Thank you for your grace and feeling in your comment.
Betty, there have been many down through history who have given their all and because of it we are free. I hope the young in our country realize that freedom cost a lot and it is not guaranteed to us. Just my thoughts. connie from Texas
