Uncle hung the flag--we's especially mindful of Pappy Cracker, a living WWII veteran, as well as Uncle's Pa' who were in the Pacific with the Navy in WWII.
I watered the flora then hitched mahself to the computer--I'se starin' down a deadline an' cain't come out to play. Poor Uncle had to go rustle up some other folks to hang wif'--
Have a fine day, y'all--an'respect them what is our legitimate heroes, sung an' unsung.

Good Morning Glory!
Spread your joy around my heart
Mary's perfect blue
:-)
What a beautiful flower. That's a blue you just can't recreate, only Mother Nature can.
Here's to our Country and everyone who has served to defend it.
Sorry you're working too, Aunty. I hope you're doing it somewhere nice... like on a front porch?
Amen on the sentiment! But you spelled splendid wrong.
Fishy,
this Heavenly Blue Mornin ' Glory were one of Granny's favorites.
Boxer-babe,
ain't it an amazin' shade? Not a hint of purple. Not on porch--pretty warm today. But I is sittin' by a window in full view of hydrangeas.
Troll,
eeek! Good catch. I fixed it.
Such a pretty flower! Sorry about your deadlines; I hope you get to be an Aunty of Leisure soon . . .
today on Military Times I looked through the deaths for 2011. The mostly young men from little towns,mostly southern. Lots of hispanics. a few career guys in their late 30s and 40s. heartbreaking losses -all of them. just looking at their faces in their dress uniforms. it kills. Today is always a somber day. I have spent it alone the last few years. Its not really a holiday in the sense I think of them. anyway, sorry you had a deadline. I painted bulls today. it was fun.
Hi Auntie! Happy Memorial Day to you and your kinfolk. You have the right spirit for the holiday, definitely, and I hope you make your deadline. No haiku here but glad I stopped by to see your post.
The only good deadline is a dead one.
Lest we forget, thank you to all the soldiers who've served.
Aunty Belle, your blog opens a door for me onto a world that is totally exotic and unknown, a surprise in every post!!
Sharon
