I haven't blogged in a couple of weeks, and I thought this was as good a time as any to share what's in my head. The elections are over and we're now gearing up for the holidays. I can't believe it's just two weeks until Thanksgiving. Where did the time go?
Tomorrow is Veteran's Day, and our offices are closed. I'm hitting the highway and pointing my car in the direction of several malls. I know we'll close the mall tomorrow night.
But as much fun as we'll be having, it's important to remember the purpose of the day. It's the day when we Americans remember and honor our military veterans, as described in this Wikipedia entry http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veterans_Day
We live in a great country that allows us freedoms unimaginable in some parts of the world. I'm very proud of our country and grateful to our veterans who have defended these rights for us. So tomorrow, while I'm shopping and lunching and enjoying my freedom to do these things, I'll also be thanking a vet.
