A day to remember and give thanks to the thousands who fought and often died on D-Day in Normandy 80 years ago. Although thousands and thousands participated in "The Longest Day", less than 1 percent of them are still alive today.
As many will say, freedom is not free.
For me growing up almost all of the Dads and uncles participated in World War 2. But strangely, almost none of them talked about it. They just wanted to get home, and go about living.
Truly, the greatest generation.
Lee; Victrola is still around? How Cool! My grandparents had one of those that had the horn style. As a kid, one thing I remember is that it had both steel and wooden needles.
With all your tomato plants K2, I see lots of BLTs in your future. Eat, sleep, poop. Mr. Manny has it made. If I'm lucky, I hope to come back as a spoiled dog.
You're on a good-news roll, Bill. You've got the final clearance for your hip surgery, and Rita has her car back, good as new.
KC; Lots of room left here in Ahiya where it isn't so hot and humid. And you could get an equivalent house costing about half as much as it is in Florida. 
About Kathi's cough; She does have a late afternoon doctor visit today to give her his diagnosis.
We didn't go off the grocery list yesterday. But every time we go, I feel like a little kid in the candy store. Fascinated by all the stuff they have. On our list there was "a jar of Smucker's grape jelly". I could have pulled up a chair and just sat there for 20 minutes looking at all the flavors and combinations of flavors of all the jams and jellies.
