Saturday, May 21 is Armed Forces Day. I want to personally say "Thank You!" to everyone who has served, past and present. This old, broken down, Air Force/Mississippi Air National Guard member salutes you!!
All you active duty/vets out there....Thank you for everything you gave up to keep us free....
Whenever I see an old lady slip and fall on a wet sidewalk,
my first instinct is to laugh.
But then I think, what if I was an ant, and she fell on me.
Then it wouldn't seem quite so funny.

The local Boys/Cub Scouts conducted a flag retirement this morning on the square in Demopolis. This was an Armed Forces Day activity as well as a program need in the commmunity. Besides the participants there were about 15 people to view the ceremony. I deduct most of our local leaders and DHS fans were in Montgomery for the baseball championship games. It was a great event that should have had more viewers.
