Our Veterans and Active Duty Personnel

Although yesterday was Veteran's Day, many of us are observing the occasion today.  To me, this is one of the most important "holidays" in the year--a chance to say a heartfelt THANK YOU to all the brave men and women, past and present, who have preserved our rights,...

In the words of Winston Churchill…

"Let us go forward together".  The American people have spoken, and as far as I'm concerned, that's sacred.  I don't discuss my private political opinions, ever, but I feel strongly about complainers who never actually get to the polls.  Armchair-quarterbacking, I...

Sorry I’m late!

What a weekend I had! On Friday night, daughter Wendy and I, along with Cousin Mary Ann and her daughter, Jenni, spent the night at Northern Quest and took in the Sylvia Browne show.  That lady cracks me up--if she wasn't a psychic, she could be a stand-up comedian! ...
