A Memorial To My Brother - Gary...

BROTHERS IN VIETNAM TOGETHER
Gary (on left) Charles (on right)

What is a brother's place in a family?

To a younger brother or sister, he may be a guide to help traverse the complicated path of growing up.

To an older brother, a little brother may be seen as a tag along and pain in the neck.

As much as siblings squabble when they are young, this is not a sign that they do not love each other.

Most siblings would lay down their life for each other if someone threatened their sibling.

As children grow up they usually find it easier to get along and relate to each other in rewarding ways.

Gary was gone far too long before I knew it.

Here's To Our Health...

AIN'T - a poem from my Aunt Rita

Ain't

He was just a little boy,
On a week's first day.
Wandering home from Bible School,
And dawdling on the way.

He scuffed his shoes into the grass;
He even found a caterpillar.
He found a fluffy milkweed pod,
And blew out all the 'filler'.

A bird's nest in a tree overhead,
So wisely placed up so high,
Was just another wonder
That caught his eager eye.

A neighbor watched his zig zag course,
And hailed him from his lawn,
Asking him where he'd been that day
And what was going on.

"I've been to Bible School",
He said and turned a piece of sod.
He picked up a wiggly worm replying,
"I've learned a lot about God".

"Hmm, fine way," the neighbor said,
For a boy to spend his time."
"If you tell me where God is,
I'll give you a brand new dime."

Quick as a flash the answer came,
Nor were his accents faint.
"I'll give you a dollar, Mister,
If you can tell me where God ain't!"

Take Me Out To The Ballgame!

A FEW MILES DRIVE
and I was at Dunedin stadium,
spring training stadium for the Blue Jays.

I enjoyed relaxing and watching a ballgame.

Spring Training Game: Blue Jays vs Yankees

Yankees won!
