Thursday Nov 11 was veterans day. A day to remember all the Veteran who served our country and lest we not forget the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, Armistice Day.
The Elks Organization held a veterans dinner and we had 2 WWII veterans attending. Looking on Google I found some interesting statistics:
Last WWI veteran, Florence Green from the U.K. 2012, age 110.
Last WWI combat veteran, Claude Choules served in the British Royal Navy died 2011, age 110
There are approximately 325,000+ surviving WWII veterans world wide today.

Thanks to all the veterans world wide who fought & served for what they believed in.

Here's the American Pledge of Allegiance by Red Skelton (1969). I sincerely hope this does not offend anybody.

Good night & God bless.

I loved Red Skelton (I was just a kid) and although he was a "funny" man, his pieces like this were quite profound yet simple enough for any to understand.

p.3 Hi, Sunny! Wonderful effect options for the hibiscus - you reminded me I need to plant my amaryllis that has been "in a cool dark place" since I took it out of the garden.


Thanks Pat. Yes, you should get your amaryllis planted. I need to prune my hibiscus, but that'll have to wait till spring now.

Saturday and Sunday drives.
Cannot figure out why the horses and cattle came out correct, but not the Red Tailed Hawk and the lighthouse photo are way off.
They were taken with the same camera and lens.


Beautiful, Sharon.

Thanks Larry for hosting another Free Sunday. I always look forward to them.
I brought my Hibiscus in for the winter several weeks ago, as it was looking pretty sad. The leaves were falling off in mass. I immediately fed it, and to my surprise this morning it bloomed. I didn't particularly like the angle I had taken the photo, so I had a go at changing it up a bit.


Love that first one,Sunny!

Went down to the local store for lunch and almost didn't take the camera with me, but changed my mind. Glad I did.
This guy was almost ignoring me. His thoughts were somewhere else.


Beautiful buck just looking for a photo!!
