Relaxing on Whit Montag
White Monday falls on Memorial Day this year. I'm just relaxing on our balcony. We pedalled out to the Isar and Biergarten there for a late lunch. Enjoyed listening to a brass band before riding home.
Reading a lot of nice bitter sweet posts about parents serving in the wars. Noth GPs were on the war to end all wars. My father was in the big one after that. Being in the Canadian AF he missed Korea. I went into the USAF and was too late for Viet Nam. Everyone survived. Even my mothers father who had 2 dud 20 lb bombs straddle him in a trench. My first Father in law was a Sea B. In the Pacific. He learned some Japanese while guarding prisoners on Schimya.
Nothing else to do on that Rock in the Aleutians.
Best wishes and remembrances for any of your family members who didn't make it. And those that did but returned damaged.
The sun is heading down on pur day here. The moon is up already.
My best to all of you.
