Soldiers Angels (special post)

Just wanted to take a special post and tell you about Soldiers Angels  (www.soldiersangels.org)  I have been with SA for almost 2 years it is such a blessing when I write to soldiers all over the world, I hear back sometimes through email and some snail mail,  Some have came home and we still keep in touch.

It brings tears of joy to my eyes when I hear a simple "thank you" that made my day.

If you all enjoy writing letters there is a soldier out there who would enjoy getting that piece of mail in his box.  You can even adopt a soldier that is where you send care packages at least once a month.  This is a blessings knowing that they get some comfort things.  You can pick either M/F and what branch of service.  With Memorial Day past....July 4th is creeping up on us do a good thing.  Once you get to the sight it is very easy...you will be assigned to a team leader (mine is very wonderful) that will help you anyway possible..and if need a break just log in and tell them you need off the team for how long.

we can all spend 5 minutes a day writing a soldier, we spend lots more time blogging.

Blessings to you all

Gator is very supported of my writing soldiers.

This is a great flower to do the "he loves me, he love's me not gam
I love taking nature pictures as they do not have to post.  God puts them in front of me for a reason and that reason is to take pictures, somebody has to.

I love the capability of today's cameras, snap, transfer, upload.  I have a eye-fi card it is pretty cool, I can take pictures and upload straight to my computer.  :)


Hope you all have a great Wednesday

Bucket List ~Day 1~ Iron Mountain


Today we are off to Iron Mountain, MI (in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan) population as of 2000 census 8154.   Meeting big John who could refuse to go there?

Lighthouses are simply amazing, those beacons have kept a lot of ships, boats, cruisers from crashing to shore.

Look at the rock sculptures that is very fascinating.  Then the dam across the river looks very intriguing.

what beauty there is all around us every where we look.

Gator and I are doing wonderful,
Do you like lighthouses?

These pictures are not my own as I have stated before I only use them for my blogs.  (now when we go there we will get our own pictures of these places.)


I hope you all have a very Blessed Wednesday.

Blessings
