We spent this day at home reflecting on those that gave their lives to protect and defend our country and the freedoms that it provides us. Had the camera handy and took a few shots to share with you............chase

Freedom is not free, it has to be paid for.
Most people nowadays forget this.
To all those who served, including myself.
Thank you.

Cat has one blue and one yellow eye. My Smudge is a white long-hair, too, but both eyes are gray.

Flower arrangement is very pretty.

Thanks David, our heterochromic Van cat was rescued as an abandoned kitten found in a shoe box on the beach 6 years ago.
She is an amazing cat named Jewell and I have made several several posts in the past about her. chase

I do love kitty cats, Chase. Unfortunately I am in a facility where they are not allowed. Peek-A-Boo was adopted by a family who adore him. A few
weeks ago they brought Peek for a visit. He didn't know me which was understandable because it had been about 2 years since we'd been together.
I'm sending a picture but don't know if it will post. If you have time, let me know.
