I've got sorta a long difficult few days at work with a string of 12 or so hour days. I'm ok with this because when the weekend is dying down for the masses mine will be starting. I've fully accepted working holidays over the years. Family and friends not so much. I'm leaving for kingdom trails on Sunday I think. Happy 4th everyone!

Sixteen years ago to this day, something amazing happened. Aircraft from the United States joined others from around the world and launched the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. Mankind. That word meant something very different before this. But we learned that we can't can't be consumed by our petty differences. We united in our common interest. It seemed like fate that that day happened to be the Fourth of July, as once again men were fighting for their freedom. Not from tryanny, oppession, or persecution...but from annihilation. They fought for our right to live. To exist. They won that day, the Fourth of July is no longer known as an American holiday, but as the the day when the world declared in one voice: We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on! We're going to Survive!

hope everyone has great times today, enjoying some drinks later and maybe catch a show, and we should all think about the ones in the who are in other countries protecting us, they should be celebrated in many ways Happy 4 of July to everyone.

It was raining this morning. They're calling for thunder storms this afternoon. No boating for me today.
