Memorial Day

I know it's late, but since it was just this past Monday, not too terribly so. I want to say "Thanks" to everyone who has put on a uniform, voluntarily or otherwise, to protect this great land, and the Great Game.

It takes courage, often beyond one's years, to voluntarily enlist to serve our nation. It comes from a belief that we truly are the greatest, freest in the world. No matter your length of service, donning the uniform takes great courage. You know, from that day forward, you now have the responsibility to stand up and protect us from whatever evil may arise.

It was a great weekend - even if we were all off the fields. I enjoyed the Indy 500, and my son got to take in a Texas Rangers v. New York Yankees game. I have to admit I was a little jealous watching it on TV, and not there with him. Growing up is hard on everyone I guess.
