Tossing Pebbles in the Stream

This blog is my place to sit and toss pebbles into the stream. The stream of Life relentlessly passing before us. We can affect it little. For the most part I just watch it passing and follow the flow. Occasionally, I need to comment on its passing, tossing a pebble at it to enjoy the ripple affect upon Life's surface.

All The Best on The Fourth of July

This being the Fourth of July, Independence Day, I am flying Old Glory on my porch to salute my American friends and family. I hope you have a lovely day with family and friends around the barbecue.

Your tribute to US independence is most touching.
I don't have a Canadian flag in my possession--so I didn't fly one on July 1. Sorry.
But it's nice to know that one American and one Canadian can be friends!

I wish more people would remember what this holiday really is. Too many people think it's a day for just excessive eating and drinking.

I read your post about M. Jackson. I totally agree, especially with the last paragraph.

And now the news will probably be filled for weeks to come with the loose cannon Palin. I wish she would make sense when she speaks. One always has to digest her words for hours before one figures out exactly what was said.

Sigh.........I'm going back down in my rabbit hole now! xoxoxo
