Home for Christmas!

Miss my boy! Charlie has been "out-of-touch" for 3 weeks now doing some
Special Forces training and it's hard not to be able to talk with him. BUT, for
the 1st time in 3 years, he will be home for Christmas!!! He will fly home on
the 19th and stay through January 3rd!!!!!!!!!!!!! Here he is at his Ranger
graduation in May.

Sunny Sunday

Sunday was another classic beautiful day in Tampa Bay.
After breakfast at Cracker Barrel, Linda and I headed for
a park to shoot some pictures. There was lots of feathered
friends and, of course, I managed to get a few shots of
my best girl!
