I called up the Veterans today which I knew and thanked them for serving and giving of themselves . DM
 
I was sad all day - too many fine young warriors are maimed and suffering from actions defending our freedoms. It was their day. Drove by Applebees - couldn't stop - just didn't feel worthy.

PS Of course today is another day... and all I can think is "I missed a free lunch?". What was I thinking?? Of course, I didn't miss it last year - thank you, Applebee's!
