My grandfather had a military service (proud WWII Marine)....<br /><br />I tried not to cry, I really did, but there were two times, when I saw his picture on the service pamphlet and when they played taps and presented the flag....<br /><br />But, overall I knew that the thing that made my grandfather the happiest was having the family together, and even though it took the unfortunate circumstance to get us there, we knew he was smiling down on us....<br /><br />I'm glad you were able to go....<br /><br />One more thing.... How do you resist the urge to say 'Bless You' every time somebody says Atchafalaya?California Keyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09105598836618841680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4921578694530617113.post-18064343977230880862010-03-22T16:17:13.906-05:002010-03-22T16:17:13.906-05:00Military funerals....I have been involved in more ...Military funerals....I have been involved in more than a few..they are actually one of the most touching tributes somebody could offer in my opinion. I'm sorry for all that you have had to deal with...<br /><br />You know if a wolf has been around people, then the man smell is a good thing. Wolves don't like people generally (they mean danger). If the wolf had never been around a man, they wouldn't know the smell anyway. I wouldn't mind the wolf skin as long as I had the rifle along with me :)<br /><br />Lovin the pics.......Bendigohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12778410776622770346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4921578694530617113.post-23127266280640868152010-03-22T13:17:14.274-05:002010-03-22T13:17:14.274-05:00I am really sorry Kristy.

It's funny (well, not really) that the same thing happened to me when my uncle died. For some reason it made me think long and hard about things.<br /><br />I am here for you if you need me!<br />xoxoxPandorah's Boxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17675389717822828644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4921578694530617113.post-47685657746486970192010-03-22T12:10:38.779-05:002010-03-22T12:10:38.779-05:00Awesome post.

Ms. A - I ...Joe - I am speshul... and immortal. =)<br /><br />Ms. A - I can't remember it all either... that's why I take so many pictures.<br /><br />TS - I wouldn't want to wear a wolf's hide either, but I figure back then it was live off what the land provides and don't waste anything.<br /><br />What I was thinking was if that particular wolf had some kind of odor or something that the other wolves didn't like, whoever was wearing the hide may be worse off than if he or she wasn't wearing the hide. Or maybe the faint odor of wolf would make the wolves curious and cautious and it would benefit the person.<br /><br />I don't know what the hell I was thinking when it popped into my head... my brain hasn't really been functioning lately...Kristyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16843060336452856402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4921578694530617113.post-60629194915799097642010-03-21T19:32:30.452-05:002010-03-21T19:32:30.452-05:00Random answer, speaking as a quarter Chickasaw, I ...Random answer, speaking as a quarter Chickasaw, I don't want to wear a wolf hide. Although I don't think it would matter because the wolves would still smell human.<br /><br />Love the pictures of the clouds, very bright and pretty.TS Hendrikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12965357024150434808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4921578694530617113.post-64837651582773629162010-03-21T19:30:46.934-05:002010-03-21T19:30:46.934-05:00Realizing we are all mortal is a tough thing to th...Realizing we are all mortal is a tough thing to think about. Losing the ones we love... even tougher. Learning your roots is amazing. Being able to remember it... something I can't do, for the life of me! Not nearly enough brain cells left with the memories etched firmly enough. Everything is just bits and pieces, papers, photos and computer records. Thank goodness for those.Ms. Ahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06263882972749791087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4921578694530617113.post-61317622158141690702010-03-21T18:56:19.365-05:002010-03-21T18:56:19.365-05:00It is so good to have you back, Kristy.

My mom is going to be 80 this year, we just got back from visiting her.<br />No roadkill in Louisiana, because, as you implied...the locals think of the highways as the meat section of a supermarket, maybe???<br />I don't know where you get these random thoughts of yours!Joe Caphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16809044606514490636noreply@blogger.com
