Why I love Her - John Wayne - click here

You ask me why I love her? Well, give me time, and I'll explain...
Have you seen a Kansas sunset or an Arizona rain?
Have you drifted on a bayou down Louisiana way?
Have you watched the cold fog drifting over San Francisco Bay?

Have you heard a Bobwhite calling in the Carolina pines?
Or heard the bellow of a diesel in the Appalachia mines?
Does the call of Niagara thrill you when you hear her waters roar?
Do you look with awe and wonder at a Massachusetts shore...
Where men who braved a hard new world, first stepped on Plymouth Rock?
And do you think of them when you stroll along a New York City dock ?

Have you seen a snowflake drifting in the Rockies...way up high?
Have you seen the sun come blazing down from a bright Nevada sky?
Do you hail to the Columbia as she rushes to the sea...
Or bow your head at Gettysburg...in our struggle to be free?

Have you seen the mighty Tetons? ...Have you watched an eagle soar?
Have you seen the Mississippi roll along Missouri's shore?
Have you felt a chill at Michigan, when on a winters day,
Her waters rage along the shore in a thunderous display?
Does the word “Aloha”... make you warm?
Do you stare in disbelief When you see the surf come roaring in at Waimea reef?

From Alaska's gold to the Everglades...from the Rio Grande to Maine...
My heart cries out... my pulse runs fast at the might of her domain.
You ask me why I love her?... I've a million reasons why.
My beautiful America... beneath Gods’ wide, wide sky.

You “got” it!

DON'T DO IT MEG!!!

[JustAmy]

This is such a special video.

Thank you, Yorkie. I’ve saved it because I forget about it.

It is worth watching often.

You found it on the internet like millions of others do. Take and use it.

If that's not good enough, give me your email addy and I'll send it to you as a gift. LOL!

If it's not signed or have a copyright on it, you can use it. Many picture websites include a paragraph saying that to the best of their knowledge contents aren't copyrighted and they'll remove it if it is found out to be. That means you can use it.

I must confess..I adore cleaning house..especially vacuuming under things..moving chairs..and my favorite..with the crevice tool around the edge of the carpet..The roar of a vacuum cleaner is so soothing to my ears.
;o)

PS
See Today's Celebrations

[yorkie]

Meg, I would love for you to have that soothing roar for hours. I’m sending a bus for you. ;)

T.G.I.F.!!!, (((GeeBeeYou))):)

I love your “Yippee it’s Friday” gif, (((Lady Jag))).

[JustAmy]

Isn’t it fun to revisit the Finest State Threads?

When I check out the Celebrations, I’m always happy to see a State Celebration.

[JustAmy]

It passed!! LOL

Good evening, Mayor.

Thank you for sharing the ODB message again this morning.

We appreciate it and you.

Speaking of "wearing RED" on Fridays, which we have been hearing about for years now.... a conservative friend of mine yesterday forwarded an e-mail that said to wear BLUE in honor of our troops on Fridays.

Has anyone else seen this???

It's been awhile since I've received the "wear RED" e-mail, but I know it circulated for a long time. I told my friend about wearing RED, which she had not heard of, and that the e-mail she received might be a hoax, an attempt to change the color now that a Dem was elected president.

Anyone?????

Note to self: Send some global warming (we have plenty of it) to gardengirl posthaste!!!

Thank you for that bright Sunny greeting, Jaycee. It warmed the morning.
