You're A Grand Old Flag!

My Dad and his sister in 1919, celebrating the 4th of July, in La Jolla, Ca.
My Dad is wearing a children's version of a WWI uniform and proudly waving his flag! My Dad served in WWII and was so proud to have served in General Patton's Army!


So thankful for the men and women who serve our country!

    This picture is beyond precious. A true treasure.

    Thanks for the kind comments friend. We have now lost 3 houses. :( I continue to have faith and occasionally panic.
    Nothing new in the MRLS portal. Get me a paper bag STAT!

    Thank you for your friendship. It means so much.
