FREEDOM IS NOT FREE.

We here in America we take these words for granted. I don't agree with the War, but I truly appreciate anyone in the military and what they go through.

Picture 4.
The Holocaust Museum
My daughter has been learning about the Holocaust this year at school and she has been moved by the Jewish experience. After visiting the Museum. My hope is that people will be kind to other ethnic groups. We all have to be accepting of different cultures.
Everyone should visit this Museum. I wish we could have taken pictures but it was not allowed.

Welcome to Washington D.C.

Why did we take the red eye fight? It was cheap, and I thought we would get some sleep. NOT! Our flight was on Jet Blue. Plenty of leg room but the plane was very loud. They have XM radio and satellite TV in every headrest. They charge you for a pillow and a blanket $5.00
but they give earplugs and sleeping mask. LOL. I BOUGHT MY OWN! So we left at 11:50 our time and arrived at 4:25 Vegas time (7:25 D.C. time). Sleep deprived luckily the hotel we are staying at let us check in early. We slept for hours. Later we drove to D.C. to sight see.LOL. No where to park so we drive around for a couple of hours and went back to our hotel.

VACATION TIME IS NEAR

HEADED TO WASHINGTON D.C. SEE YOU WHEN WE GET BACK!

SAD REASON TO GET DAY OFF!

I'm off today, my Union is picketing unsafe work conditions. On last Saturday the six person died on site due to unsafe working conditions, the twelfth person to die due to work injuries on that job. Funny how City Center tries to keep the number of deaths low by only reporting actual deaths on site! And not total do to work injury. My condolences goes out to the family of Dustin Tarter.

People always think Union Construction workers are paid to much. But the truth is everyday we go to work, we may not return home because its a very dangerous job.
