Well Hello Sailor!!!  This is a photo of the fleet visiting NYC......spectacular site watching them come up the Hudson River....just something else to see.  Don't you just feel for the mums & dads that serve on these ships?  How they must miss their little ones and miss their families??  How they protect our way of life every day??  How they put themselves in the path of danger so we are all safe and we sleep well at night??  These men and women are so brave.  They deserve nothing but the highest respect from us.  Anyone that dares say anything negative about them should stand in their shoes for a day or so.  Go live their lives.  It is so easy to forget what danger they face every day just so we can go about our every day errands, school, go for that run in the park, go ride your horse, take your kids to a movie...whatever we do.  I salute our troops.  I am in awe of their bravery. 

I thank them for making my little boys world safer.
