    Good Lord everyone, I don't know what to say. I am most honored and humbled by your kind words and further, by the generosity of the OP as well as all of you as it would be easier for you to want these items yourself. I'm going to do great things with these items as the OP here just created another example of how giving leads to greater things. Stay tuned here in Lost Dogs for more details on these items over the next few days.

    The warmth I have flowing through me from your kind words is priceless. Thank you everyone.

    Jacob - it was our greatest honor shipping care packages to you- our Brave. You being on this forum and a Pearl Jam fan too just made us work extra hard to get you as much as we could. Welcome Home to you!! For all our Veterans - thank you for making the sacrifices each and every day so we can continue to enjoy the daily freedoms provided to us.

    This weekend, I visited the graves sites of fallen American Soldiers. I made an etching of a Headstone. This person was in a notorious war on American soil, and he had just turned 20 when he died. So Sad, and I know there were younger soldiers that died in the same war near him. :cry:

    I drove to Fort Hood, and saw it for the first time. It's still one of the largest active bases, Elvis was a resident there. He had left the building, though. :D

    Yesterday, I went to a lake, and rode the boat all the way to the dam, or U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reservoir.

    All these thing I never knew, and learned in a weekend.

    To me, the best thing was to admire and honor the past and the present.

    I've got Soul, but I'm not a Soldier.
    I'm not that strong, or brave.





    I played "Soldier of Love", for a friend that had never heard it before.

    I like Stone's? Cha- Cha- Cha, at the end of this video.)



    I know the contest is done, but I wanted to share. I have to leave for work soon. Thank you, if you liked it.
