Kitten with those wings of yours, you should be able to go anywhere in a heart beat.

Let's see, I've done the Canada thing, done the Mexico thing, done East Coast, done West Coast, done the Las Vegas thing, done the big D thing, OK now it's time for the Europe or down under thing. Then I can maybe work on the genealogy in Europe.

The British West Indies!

Now if ya like cool places and lots of wild life how about a trip to Antarctic lots of seals and my favorite the penguins I seen they have this Cruise ship that takes you to the ice pack and after a day you come back to a nice warm cabin to relax. Always wanted to do that I'm mean how many folks will ever visit there in there live I also recommend Isle Royale up in the up of Michigan Lots of moose and wild all over for those who have never hear of it it's an island in Lake Superior very remote and relaxing you have to order tickets a year ahead of time to even go, not many folks visit there either.

Chazzy would love either the Redwood Forest or Yellowstone!!!

I think you need to come visit us......Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Parks are our backyard. Giant Seguoia trees are an amazing site! We'll take ya on the back roads---away from all the tourists

We can never have enough Parks! Hell, we had one state park wiped out here in Missouri, the largest electric utility company here (Ameren UE) had a huge reservoir near the Tom Sauk/Johnsons Shut ins park that broke, washed away two people and all three of their children, all did survive though. They're trying to ready it for re-opening by Memorial Day, but it'll be decades before the area is even near what it use to be.

So...do ya'all have any Beaver Festivals there?

Daddy is showing some improvement, and he's stubborn as hell, won't sit still for a minute!
You have any photos of that POW wall? I really would love to see that! My parents are volunteers at a local history museum, I've donated tons of stuff to it, and love to go visit when they are working, I just can't spend enough time looking at all that and sometimes I get to help identify some of their "whatisit" items.

Send them to me here, when I'm online I'm always logged in here, I'd really love to see them!
I'd say track him down, for one, any additional information about his time in the POW barricks will add allot of importance and value to the paintings,(not just a monetary value but a value as a historical record) I have the highest respect for any veterans of a war, and I spend as much time as I can listening to thier personal accounts, they seem very willing to share, and often really appreciate that someone else is eager to hear them talk about.

I agree!...Track him down!...

Thanx to you & chazzy. I always felt that way too, but I didn't want to open any doors to a painful past. But the two of you just gave me the inspiration I needed. Maybe he's already passed, BUT what if I DID find him??? Wouldn't that be COOOL??
