Today is one of the most important days of the year. The day we honor the men and women who have served our country in the military. So many have surrendered their life’s so we can live with freedoms other are denied around the world. Other veteran’s live with the scars of war for the rest of their life; some scars can be seen while others aren’t so overt. Without our military we as a nation would not exist as nation.
Always remember freedom is free!
I found this video tribute on You Tube I hope you enjoy it and if you see a Vet today say thank you for serving us.
November’s Mondays are different than others. In November here in Michigan we are getting ready for snow, we know it Will descend upon our state at any moment. In November we respect the mighty winds that roar across our state, turning what was once a summer breeze into ship eating ‘Gales’ that’s have swallowed many a vessel on our great lakes.
The most famous of ships to be ingested by Lake Superior is the Edmund Fitzgerald, made legendary by Gordon Lightfoot’s song “The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald”. In honor of all who have died on our fickle lakes here is the video of the song by Gordon Lightfoot.

I just love this song by Luke Bryan ‘Roller Coaster’
Hi, can you believe we are already leave deep into what is the most coziest season of all. That’s right it Fall; one of my favorite seasons of the year. My family just love the epic colors of the leaves changing, soon to be followed by an amazing wild wind dance that only Mother Nature can choreograph. So lets check out this time of year on the web.
Amazing Autumn
So by birth I am a ‘Yooper’ if you don’t know what that is, it is someone who is born or lives in Michigan’s Upper Peninsular. I remember how quickly fall comes to the UP, it’s glory can be brief if the gales began to pick up.

Fall at the orchard is always a fun family event. Here in southeast Michigan we are home to Blakes Apple Orchard and Cider Mill; this amazing spot is also a favorite of county music singer Leanna Rimes.

So what special thing do you do to celebrate the season?

This is an amazing rendition of “Georgia On My Mind”. I hope you are day dreaming about Georgia because I am.
