A wedding, a district meeting, and a birthday!

There is no rest when you have so much going on!  I got back from a great trip in West Virginia Friday and early Saturday morning drove to Lee's Summit for the wedding of long-time friends Matt and Tammy.  So happy for them and it was great to see so many VFW friends in the crowd.  Sunday morning I woke up early and drove home [what's four hours between friends?] so I could attend my own District meeting at the Metzger-Crook Post 6504.  During the joint session Waterloo's own Mayor Smith spoke about veterans and a great project he has finally completed.  There is now a book of POW and MIA service personnel from Monroe County!  Each page has the name, photos, and information about these special veterans from our County. It's a great project!  Last, how could I forget the birthday of our United States Marine Corps?  Semper Fi Devil Dogs!
