Kudos American Airline

 My friend, Thorne, from my work community is a World War II survivor.  According to the World War II Museum there are less than 120,000 survivors left out of the 16.1 million people who served during that time.  

This week Thorne got notification from American Airlines that he has an invitation to the 80th Anniversary of D Day in France.  I believe he had a call or two prior, but you just never know with stuff like this.  Well, it is true.  And American Airline is paying for the trip for Thorne and a guest to France. 

Kudos American Airline and I'm so happy for Thorne.  It is an honor.

Welcome 2024

 2023 was a quiet year for me.  Not a lot of blogging.  It's not that I didn't have things to write about, I just didn't have the motivation.  Looking back I had over 7000 views though. Which I still find to be amazing. 

Along with working full time I managed to go to Kokomo four times which included one drive there.  Took the eldest boy on a cruise.  Brought the eldest girl here for two weeks.  Went to Seattle for a long weekend and one quick trip to the beach.  I read a dozen books.  I tried new food.  And the household increased by one kitten and one puppy.  

The first half of the year went by so slow. The second half made up for it by just blazing by. And now on to 2024.

More trips to Kokomo and a trip with the youngest girl.  The youngest boy turns 6 tomorrow.  So exciting watching them become who they are.  I have a trip to Vegas at the end of the month.  I have a new stack of books to read. Life is good.
