Another Beautiful Florida Day and a Thanks to all our Veterans.

The morning came early as I stayed up late to watch the end of an exciting Monday Night Football game. Kudos's to Curt Warner of the Cardinals for bringing the team back to win after trailing most of the night. Warner is a great guy and a Christ follower. I read his autobiography a few years ago after leading the Rams to a Super Bowl in St.Louis.

After my quiet time and a lite breakfast I checked on the squirrel damage in yard and garden. Those pesky critters are having a fine time digging up my new seedlings and holes in the grass. Why they dig in my garden when the oak tree they climb in is loaded with acorns. Oh well!!!

I didn't get to the Rec. today as it was closed in honor of Veterans Day. I too want to say thank you too all the men and women I served alongside of in the Air Force. I was 20 years old when I headed to Vietnam. I was part of an air crew that flew into 'Nam weekly. We brought troops and material in country and the wounded on Medi Evacs as well as the dead back to the States. I have over 5000 hours in the air as an air crew member on the C-141 A Starlifter jet aircraft. I served from 1966 to 1973. I loss several friends as they served their country proud during that war. Hopefully those who serve now will be respected and honored and not left hung out to dry by the politicians who cut and ran in Vietnam.

Amy and Ava came for lunch after Nancy and I got back from Sam's.We were there before 10 AM to shop for the Wednesday night fellowship meal which Nancy cooks weekly. This week its BBQ chicken, baked potato's, baked beans and garlic bread with a fresh salad and ice cream pie for dessert. All that for $5. What a deal!!! We delivered the food to the church and I scrubbed 30 pounds of spuds and Nancy made fresh tea and lemonade. Tomorrow she cooks all day for about 60+ people, then I will join her at 4 PM to get ready to serve at 5PM then clean up and wash dishes.

Phoenix came over for a visit with Ava and I took both of them on a long wagon ride. They are so cute together but are starting to get into that mode where they both want what the other has in their hands. Its cute to see how they trick each other into giving up what is in the others hands.

Well we once again picked up a flame broiled rotisserie chicken at Sam's for dinner along with fried spuds and green beans. YUMMM!!! Well will close for now missing our mountains friends. LATER.
