"This Memorial Day....."

This weekend we all have got to take the time to give thanks to our brave servicemen and women who have sacrificed so much to give us the freedom to do the things we do. I know there are members on here that have served - so many we have never met. To you - we all say thank-you and those words are just not enough. You all are true hero's and truly have our respect.


This weekend is for you.

    Gotta say Steely you do some of the most beautiful work with feathers and thread..

    A fitting tribute to those who have served and a great heart felt "Thank You" to those families who have paid the ultimate price by loosing a loved one in these crazy wars....
