AM,

This is a great shot. It lets us see some of what our heroes are doing.

President Obama was in Ottawa yesterday and how I would have loved to have met him. He had a very successful visit, but didn't ask Canada to extend their deployment in Afghanistan. I would think we'd stay if it's necessary. He did mention the 108 men and women we have lost there.

Enjoyed my visit. Love the song "Red, White and Blue."

Blessings for a great weekend.
Mary

mary...as always, I am thrilled you stopped by for a visit. 'Red,White&Blue' is a newer addition to my PlayList, I too love the song.
The picture is an amazing glimpse of what our soldiers endure! I am so very thankful for all of our American and Canadian Soldiers!

My neighbor is a Colonel in the army here in MN. He is a helicopter man. They fly the blackhawks and hueys. He doesn't tell many stories, but when he flys overhead you know he's there watching us!
