Default Good to be American

Woke up this mourning, threw on my house coat and went into the kitchen to grab a quick bite. Standing at my kitchen window looking out at a squirrel hanging upside down on one of the bird feeders I saw the calender out of the corner of my eye, September 11.

It hit me September 11 holy cow I got to,,, I went to the bedroom and threw on a pair of sweat pants a shirt and my shoes. ran through the house to the closet by the front door. reached in and grabbed what I needed and headed out side to a beautiful mourning unrolled my prize from the closet shook it a little to get the wrinkles out and joyfully placed my American flag in its place by the front walk.

I took the rest of the day remembering how wonderful it is to live in America, How thankful I am for the armed forces and how I still feel sorrow for the events that took place only a few years back.

Well said snook, It really is unbelievable the number of people who live in our country and take it for granted.

Every time I hear Lee Greenwood it gives me chills, I am proud to be an American.

God bless all our fighting men and women.
