August 20, 2012 Beautiful Day


It doesn't look like much, but this is where CB and I ate dinner tonight.  It was a lovely cool evening with no bugs, no flies, no wind, no mosquitoes.  It was hard to believe we were in Kansas.

Why don't I think of taking pictures with people actually sitting around the table eating supper?  Because I'm old and forgetful.  You will just have to take my word for it.

Here's something cool.  When I was a little girl, my dad used to sing the "82nd Airborne Division" song to me.  He couldn't remember all the words, but he had the tune right.  While wandering around on YouTube, I found this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H86l4BP5g5U

One of my favorite lines is "Take your jumps and take your lumps today."  Dad always used to tell me "take your lumps" and I always did!  Sometimes more than my share, if you want to know the truth.

This song makes me smile and miss my dad a little.
