It’s Veteran’s Day, God Bless America & Thanks Dad

It’s Veteran’s Day folks, the day when we thank all those servicemen and women who serve to protect our country and our civil liberties.  As part of the #PhotoADay challenge I set out to find something patriotic.  My options were few and far between, but just as I was about to give up, I noticed high in the air, perched at the top of the construction site that will be home to Kansas City’s Kauffman Performing Arts Center an American flag.

I hope you took an opportunity to say thanks to your Father, Mother, Sister, Brother, Uncle, Aunt or other relative that made a sacrifice for our country.  My Father served in Vietnam and everyday I am thankful that he was returned home safely to our family.  Everyday I am proud of the fact that my Father was brave enough to endure the pain and torture of Vietnam.

So thanks Dad and to every one of our Veterans I also say thank you.  This image is for you.
