Yes, it's all about those who fought for our FREEDOM. Wish they were still with us to help us KEEP that FREEDOM these days. They were true Patriots. Say a prayer today while you do whatever it is you do on this holiday. 
Dave: Years ago I asked about the young man who broke my heart. I asked a friend from our church who I grew up with and was at her parents house for a birthday party for her brother about "Don Wilson" and if she knew what had become of him. She told me he went off to college and then got married and had 2 kids. From what she knew he stayed the nice guy that he always was and I haven't asked about him since then. 
Life went on for both of us! Ha Ha. "And now you know the whole story" (who use to say that phrase)??
We had a fantastic time putting up the AWNING. It went up like a dream this year. It helped that Art sprayed the track up on the roof with Silicone before the gang came to help! 
We had a nice INSIDE picnic of homemade Cold Mac (mayo) Salad and Pizza from Buddy's and Y'All Tea brewed made from Southern Tea I had bought. (Iced) The Texas Sheet cake was eaten out on the deck under the AWNING. All in all it was a fantastic family time.
The kids all loved Art's paint job and the new light fixture too.
Today is a work in the yard day and it's HOT out there already. 78F. Suppose to get up to 90. Yikes.......I'm off of here to get out while I can still stand it. Thank goodness there is GOOD WIND and NO HUMIDITY like yesterday. Whew!
Enjoy your day and think of those who SERVED for the USA and are not with us today. 
DAVE our permeant is flying high on the pole and the little ones are out on the lawn!
