Hello Troops! Hope everyone did something worthwhile this week for it cost you a week of your life.

Super weather here today.
Unreal for December. Mild temp, actually warm.
Clear skies. Wonderful.

Went to a Christmas parade today.
Our annual one in the small town nearby.
Bands, music, people, things, all great.
What a wonderful nation we have.

Watched our two sons in the parade.
This was our oldest's last parade here, for it's college next year. As I saw him marching up to us, I gotta tell ya, ole Dad had to shake a tear off. Been watching that little fella walk in those parades for many years. He was on the outside front corner marching in the band. Was on the side Mrs. RR and I were standing, almost like it was meant to be that way. When he walked by, it struck me that he was actually taller than me now, how he'd grown up, like it had never dawned on me before. How fast they grow.

Pretty proud of that one, too. He's a better person than I was at his age at this point in life.

So much to be thankful for.....

Have a great weekend my Friends

RR
