Happy Memorial Day Weekend

[Spicoli]

Respects indeed,every night when the feet leave the floor.Forget the politics and the party affiliation......its not worthy of what this day is about.

Fathers,Brothers,sisters,friends,co workers......and nephews.....remember the ones that served and the ones that have fallen.They deserve unending respect and gratitude!!

Was planning a small trip to Baja but honestly backed out just at the last minute.

Gonna go to the movies tonight, a wedding tomorrow and depending on the weather to the beach on Sun.

Hope everyone has a good one.

Yeah days like Memorial Day and Independence Day are too important to allow politics to get the spotlight. Sure I disagree with a ton of people on here about politics and sure I didn't vote for Obama but Memorial Day is a day where everyone comes together as one America and thanks our Armed Forces past and present, because they are the people who make it possible for us to have such a great nation.

Stupid question, but do you guys mark Remembrance Day as well on Nov. 11 or is that just a Commonwealth/Canadian thing?

Don't know what your plans are tomorrow Stateside but alot of activity locally.Going down to D-day museum for a bit.....Ive been twice,and both time its the ww II vets speaking that take precedence over any & all displays.Very humbling.Few west bank parades honoring La. armed service members.

Talked to my father tonight.Like to call him last few years on this day as hes been opening up now a days,getting older.Almost like he needs an ear and will just start talking about his experiences out of the blue,at the oddest of times.I dont know if anyone has seen that old series "Letters home".I watched it back in high school when it came on HBO originally.Pretty hard view in spots frankly.We need to remember them all people....seems every generation dims on the History just a bit no matter the era or conflict.Just running on,a few segments here.
