Honoring Our Vets


We're a little late getting a post up today but we do want to do a quick one.  Today is a day when we honor our military veterans.  It's Veterans Day in the United States and Remembrance Day in the United Kingdom and Canada.



We salute all the veterans who have given so much for us to have the freedom to make this post.. 

This is Jan's favorite Veterans Day video, so we are posting it as thanks for her allowing us to use the computer first today.  (And we have to admit, we've grown fond of it too.)  If you've heard it before, it is worth listening to again.  GI Joe and Lillie written and performed by Joe Bonsall of the Oak Ridge Boys.

  5. The video was very moving. I did manage to attend the Veterans' Day ceremony. Thank you so much for your kind words about Herman. We don't know when our furries will leave us, but we know that they carry our love with them.
