Quotes of Note

You're born a male but you have to CHOOSE to be a man" - Herm Edwards

"I mourn the loss of thousands of precious lives, but I will not rejoice in the death of one, not even an enemy. Returning hate for hate multiplies hate, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that" - Unknown

"They err who think Santa Clause comes down through the chimney; he really enters through the heart." - Mrs. Paul M. Ell

"Thankfully, our true roots are in heritage and not things. I just need to keep reminding myself that things are only reminders of heritage." - Keetha Broyles, June 21, 2010

"Tears lubricate the soul." - from "Finding Buck McHenry"

"Somehow you must come to understand that God is love, that love is the proof of God, and forgiveness is the proof of love." - The Priest in "Levi's Will" by W. Dale Cramer

"The truth about a man is in what he does, not what he says." - W. Dale Cramer in "Levi's Will"

"Fairy Tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten." - G. K. Chesterton

Kamma Kamp in My City

.
.

Something or someone alien has invaded our space!

It's our three grans who traveled yesterday to Chicago,

.
.

Where I picked them up and brought them to Wisconsin for a few days of Kamma Kamp.
.
.

Along the way we stopped to stretch our legs and get a little R and R.

.
.

Later we visited the Wisconsin River to try to feed the ducks, who didn't seem interested in what we had to offer.

Then it was time to hit the hay.

Wonder what today has in store at Kamma Kamp!?!?

.
.

Today I'm joining Unknown Mami

For Sundays in My City.
.

My city is Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin
.

Please hurry over to Unknown Mami's to see

What's happening in other cities around blogland.
