"Dug it out of the ground myself."

My little giant ladder is extended all the way up and I'm 6 feet tall. I measured the tree while I was up there. 12 feet tall!! Bigger and better than last year!

Summit is doing good with it so far. She wanted to eat it yesterday but we put that thought right out of her head.

Happy Birthday

To my blog. It turned one yesterday.

Sunrise

There was an awesome sunrise the other morning. Here is the best my crappy camera could do.

Veterans Day

Veterans Day is an American holiday honoring military veterans. Both a federal holiday and a state holiday in all states, it is celebrated on the same day as Armistice Day or Remembrance Day in other parts of the world, falling on November 11, the anniversary of the signing of the Armistice that ended World War I. (Major hostilities of World War I were formally ended at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918 with the German signing of the Armistice.)

Veterans Day is largely intended to thank veterans for their service, to acknowledge that their contributions to United States national security are appreciated, and to underscore the fact that all those who served - not only those who died - have sacrificed and done their duty.

Be sure to thank a Vet.
