    … for you service! Across this great land of ours, in rural areas and urban areas, there are millions of our fellow citizens who dedicated years to entire lives, serving and protecting this great land. They are your friends and your neighbors and they are very special people who willingly put their lives on the line so that you can have a cup of coffee in the morning while witnessing yet another day begin. Not all who  have served have been in combat, but were there to do so if the need arose.

    Take a moment to thank them individually … perhaps like some I have known, they may have been gunners in B-17’s, fighter pilots in Iraq, fighter and bomber pilots and helicopter pilots in Vietnam and elsewhere and the many who support all of them. After WWII we never used the weaponry I worked on, but we were always ready within minutes to deliver them. That is a good thing, but also good to not have to drop the hammer. As Theodore Roosevelt said, “speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far.”

    This shot is of low clouds over Thunder Mountain (foreground) and the north end of Long Canyon. The furthest left road on the left is Dry Creek Road terminating in Seven Canyons development, and not shown on the left, Enchantment Resort. On the far right edge is Wilson Mountain … it was an awesome day in the air.

    Have a beautiful day … chose to make it the best ever!

    Cheers

    Cold lies the lifeless earth, the birds are gone,
    and through the naked trees the shrill wind
    whistles.Though the world outside be chill and dead,
    may the world within us resound with gleeful songs,
    and the chambers of our hearts be warm with hope
    and love. And may many an evening’s merriment,
    beside the hearthstone’s cheerful glow, make sweet
    the passing time.
    — Max Ehrmann

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
