So does anyone have any big plans this weekend? We are heading down to Nags Head to enjoy the beach for a few days and then heading home for a pool party Monday.
Lets not forget the reason for Memorial Day and the Men & Women who died for our freedoms.

This will be the first of many Memorial Day weekends where I spend celebrating my nieces birthday. she will be one years old on 5/28. Should be a good time. I just have to remember to go slow on route one becasue they will be out in force this weekend.
And thank you all to those who gave up their lives so we can enjoy this great country!

God Bless all who have, do, and will serve. May Your perpetual light shine upon our brothers and sisters who died in service to us.

I've posted this before, but it's always important to remember....
It is the Soldier, not the minister
Who has given us freedom of religion.
It is the Soldier, not the reporter
Who has given us freedom of the press.
It is the Soldier, not the poet
Who has given us freedom of speech.
It is the Soldier, not the campus organizer
Who has given us freedom to protest.
It is the Soldier, not the lawyer
Who has given us the right to a fair trial.
It is the Soldier, not the politician
Who has given us the right to vote.
It is the Soldier who salutes the flag,
Who serves beneath the flag,
And whose coffin is draped by the flag,

I've got a lot of work to do this weekend, but the wife and I leave first thing Tuesday AM for a week in Siesta Key, FL for our 1 yr wedding anniversary. I can't freaking wait.
God bless the men and women of our Armed Forces and their families, and God bless the USA.
Have a great weekend, Warpathers.

Just a trip down to Mom & Dad's beach house in Rehoboth. Probably some burgers and dogs, some steamed crabs and some beers. Then wander back sometime Monday to prepare for the weekly grind.
Big thanks to those who serve and who have served.
Hoping to get out on the lake this weekend if the t-storms let up.

Buying a new gas grill after work today.
Going to get some big flower pot things to put out in front of my house and put some american flags in em. Thinking about putting up a flag holder out front as well and a nice size american flag but i dont have the right tools to drill into brick.
BBQin tonight to do a test run on the new grill, fishing early tomorrow morning, hopefully grilling the fish I catch in the afternoon with some friends coming over, big drunken debauchery bbq on sunday in highlandtown hon with a bunch of bartenders and bar owners.
Going into work on monday for a few hours to work with an intern on a dc court of appeals brief I have to file next week. That sucks.
Thank you to the men and women of our armed forces. Just got some pics of my grand dad when he was in the navy, so I will def remember him, my father and uncles who served as well as sgt. Bubba Bunting.
