Well, it's Memorial Day in these United States. I am grateful to all the soldiers, sailors, marines, and airmen that have given their lives in service to our country. May they rest in peace, and may we ever honor them.
I think we are fortunate to have the "Blue Ghost" permanently moored here as a museum. She saw much action in WWII. It's my favorite museum, and I've been to the Metropolitan Museum in New York and the Art Institute of Chicago.
There's nothing more American than baseball. Caught a game last night at our local AA ballpark (Astros affilliate).
Visited the Cotton Club, a lounge next to the press box with a great view (my son designed the renovated lounge, by the way--
):
They have plenty of beer, of course.
Our seats were right behind the home dugout:
Our team won 9-1!
Fireworks after the game for Memorial Day weekend (they also have fireworks every Friday night).
I am flying my American flag today, and going to visit my granddaughter (and her parents!) later today. May catch a little baseball on television in the meantime.
Have a good and safe holiday, everyone.
