June CupboardScape

Today is Flag Day.

It disturbs me when I hear Patriotism

has gone by the wayside.

We should all honor our flag and what it represents.

Freedom should NEVER be taken for granted.

Growing up my dad flew his flag every day

except when it rained or snowed.

He put it up in morning & took it down

by sunset.

Today in honor of Flag Day,

today's CupboardScape is all about flags.

Starting with my favorite flag pictutre.

 

George and Martha Washington

are on the right in this picture along

with our flag.

Wonder how many of the younger

generation even know who our

first president was?

Another flag.

This pillow I created 

from fabric and muslin

then stained. 

Finally our grand old flag in all her glory.

Actually this is a 48 star vintage fabric one.

Long may it wave!

In other news,

our friend up the river actually had a boat

of illegals come across from Canada.

The boat stopped at his dock.

When his security cameras went off,

he went outside immediately and asked the

boat operator what he was doing.

Three men and two kids got out with suitcases

and of course could not speak English.

Our friend called Border Patrol asap

and was told they were too busy to come out.

Then a truck pulled into his yard.

He then called the state police on speaker.

Once the individuals heard the police they ran

to the truck and left their suitcases.

The truck was long when the police arrived,

but at least he was able to provide them with

both the boat license and the truck one.

The next day he drove to the Border Patrol

office and spoke to a manager.

The manager told him he was not even aware

of this situation and would review the taped call.

Not that it will change anything,

but for those who live here along the river

we would think Border Patrol would come out 

since we are not like the Southern border.

We will not know about Bob's sleep study

for a bit. This is is second one. It took them

2 months to have him come back in for this one.

We do know he has sleep apnea.

Guess this test will determine what machine

will be needed.

Thanks for your concern.

Much appreciated.

Patriotic Flag Blessings To All!
