I just posted my 4th of July sketch. I am still learning the transfer process from my ipad to my blog. The curve is sharp and I am just on my way up the curve so forgive any obvious mistakes. Now as to the fourth.. On Sunday our church choir sang a medley of the anthems of each of the armed forces and asked members of each to stand as their song was being sung in order to be recognized. It was very moving to watch the variety of ages that proudly stood as we sang their song. As a congregation we stood and said the pledge to the flag. It meant more to all of us than a fireworks display. Over the years the meaning has been over shadowed by the picnics,vacations, hot dog eating contests, traffic reports, and the occasional flag being flown. I would bet my bottom dollar that those who stood and those who sang will not forget. Thank you to all who over the years have given their lives to protect this life we lead.
