November 11, 2013---Michelle’s, Loveland, Colorado


Today was Veterans Day.  Thank you to all the veterans who have served to keep our country free.  I saw a t-shirt that said “Land of the free because of the Brave.”  Very, very true!

There was to be a parade in downtown Loveland.  Matthew, who is a Freshman in High School, is in Jr. ROTC.  This was to be his first parade to march in.  He looked very handsome in his uniform this morning.

Much to my surprise, just a minute before he passed us, Lori and Tucker appeared.  She had driven all night and barely got here in time to see Matthew march by.  He said he saw Lori, but didn’t believe it could be her.  It was a special day for Matthew and her coming to see him made it even more so.

Meredith also came to watch, but went back to work as soon as the last of the parade went by.

We had a lot of visiting to do.  Lori and Tucker went to Meredith’s and came back over here, bringing Hapa with them.  She had been playing with Tuck so well Lori hoped it would continue over here.

I spent quite a bit of time working on bracelets.  I can do that and join in the conversation, too.

The temperature began to drop this afternoon.  By the time the sun went down the temp had dropped to 32°.  Br-r-r-r-r!
