1. I don‘t have any specific plans but might take a little road trip.
2. I wish I had a functioning work space. I wish for homes for every person and animal that needs one. I wish the pool at the community center would reopen soon.

Happy Memorial Day everybody! We celebrate today in remembrance of those who have died in active service in the military. And today I would like to do so in a bookish way...

Can you name any authors who have served in the military? (Doesn't have to be US military services. Living or dead). Let us remember and honor them today by naming them off. 😊

♥️🇺🇸 “Our flag does not fly because the wind moves it. It flies with the last breath of each soldier who died protecting it.”

God bless the U.S. service men and women that gave their lives for our freedom, and to those that have served or are serving in our armed forces today. #InRemembranceToOurFallenSoldiers #HappyMemorialDay
