MOSTLY CLOUDY AND MILD IN THE NATIONS THIS MORNING, 80% CHANCE OF RAIN THEY SAY. THE CHEROKEES ARE UNDERWHELMED. THIS WAS INTERESTING: https://dnyuz.com/2021/06/05/blinded-b ... its-not-your-imagination/ I HAVE LONG BEEN RELUCTANT TO DRIVE MY TOY CARS ON TWO LANE ROADS AT NIGHT; IT SEEMS LIKE EVERYONE HAS THEIR LIGHTS ON HIGH BEAM. AND SINCE CATARACT SURGERY I DON'T RECOVER FROM BRIGHT LIGHT VERY FAST. NOTHING ON THE AGENDA, A TWO NAP DAY IS LIKELY. IT'S A DAY OF REST, AFTER ALL :-) |

I try to avoid it.... so we have like a million jacked up 4x4's in this State and so the new beams are really high and then the jackwagons think its cool to turn on their f'n fog lights.... just pisses me off.... losers...... I love it when a car is coming down the road with old yellow headlights.... yes...it is so...

June 6th 1944 a huge day in history.... wonder if the kids now days won't try to cancel that somehow..... We are only one generation away from losing our Freedoms..... Ronald Reagan.... |

Such a remarkable day in history. Salutes, thank you's and much love to those men who landed that day, and the following days, to help liberate Europe. They gave their lives for freedom.

I find one of the most striking things about the whole day to be Eisenhower's "in case of failure" letter—never needed, of course "Our landings in the Cherbourg-Havre area have failed to gain a satisfactory foothold and I have withdrawn the troops. My decision to attack at this time and place was based upon the best information available. The troops, the air and the Navy did all that Bravery and devotion to duty could do. If any blame or fault attaches to the attempt it is mine alone." https://www.docsteach.org/documents/document/in-case-of-failure |

The men and women who served on the front lines and those that helped the dead and wounded gave it all. Many wracked with fear as they watched their comrades in arms fall in great numbers. The blood washed beaches, bodies piling up and floating in the wakes. I've seen the footage. It is shocking to say the least. Hot and humid. Suprising, aye? Working on vehicles and tags and insurance cards and matching toll transponders with the vehicles. Had to add trailer tag, delete another and drop a transponder that we didn't take out when we sold the van. There were no charges run up so that's good. |

As far as the light issues we have the same problems here. Jackwagons and all. |

Hey guys, a busy day here. Up early and off to church, then home to continue the building project. Walls up and trusses built and up on the building. Tomorrow a beam to support the lean-to roof.
The longest day.... one of the greatest days in American history. |
