It’s Memorial Day weekend! Hope you all have something fun lined up this weekend. What are your plans?
 
No real plans. Spent a good part of the last two days shoveling rock into potholes and ruts. The scenery was the best.
Little road that winds through a stand of tall Douglas Fir trees with a nice understory. Cool and shady place to be working. Peaceful and quiet.

Hope your weekend is spent doing things you enjoy.
 
No different than any other weekend. Saturday I changed the irrigation, sprayed some weeds, made a few phone calls, met with B discussed some cows and made decision, and took a drive up the canyon to kill a few rattle snakes. Sunday (today) do some irrigation and then go to church. After church? Monday I will start the day with irrigation. No plans after that but I am sure something will come up.
 
Yesterday,my MIL took us out to eat to Lowake Steak House for my Wife's birthday,after that I watched Granddaughters have fun in neighbor's swimming pool with other kids,then we made pizzas for supper. Went home and watched the Spurs beat OK City in basketball. Sprinkling this morning while I'm writing this. Life is good even though I don't have any cows anymore.

Something I read today: Take 60 seconds today. Just 60. Think about someone who died in uniform, even if you didn't know them. That's what Memorial Day asks of us — nothing more, nothing less.

Thank you for this article. A lot there I did not know. My Dad and his older brother served in WWII. My Dad in the South Pacific. My Uncle, his older brother, was in Europe, and was shot down and spent nearly two years in a German prison.
I think of them frequently, and all the others that made sure I had, and still have, a safe place to live.
 
Pretty much every adult man I knew growing up had served in one capacity or another in WW!!. A couple uncles were in both Korea and Vietnam. Lots of classmates were in Vietnam. One neighbor was MIA over North Vietnam for a very long time. I heard rumors that well after the war they found his remains.
