Here is a new and different approach to the season, and one that will benefit others. Giving Tuesday. Its a focus on charity, and a way to emphasize it while we are in a holiday and giving spirit. Check it out. I have already gotten some emails about charities that we support who are participating. You might find yours too. There are lots of needs, and this is a way to help out in a new way! Pass it on...

A hearty thank you to our Veterans

On this day we Americans pause to salute our veterans. Those courageous souls who have donned the uniform of the United States military services. Without them, we would be a different place. Their strength, determination, and voluntary duty are special and unique. If you are a veteran, Thank You so much for your service. Know that you are appreciated and respected. If you know one, thank them personally for their service. They don't ask for much, and have given more than most of us, and they will appreciate the notice.
God Bless You all.
