Nothing like a three-day weekend, especially when the days are perfect Midwest weather summer ones and no obligations are staining up your to do list.Feasted on deep-fried turkey and too many "fixings" with a couple of dozen friends; tagged along on a 3 bike, 4 person, lazy, 200-mile jaunt; visited the construction site of a 2,000-acre "mega farm"; cruised alongside a significant number of newly erected wind turbines; played in the garden & the pool, and for the first time in my life skipped fireworks - although caught sight of many during the two county ride home from the turkey/mosquito feast!
Hopefully everyone took some time to reflect on the FREEdoms we are so accustomed, the ones we take for granted, the ones for which the women & men before us sacrificed, the ones that are represented by the flag of our country, the ones I wish for every human being on the planet.
In the name of Independence, live free ~
