Happy Fourth of July
May God Bless the U.S.A.

Pentoga Road

Indeed, a very happy, wonderful, Fourth of July, to all on this beautiful morning. I think it's important to remember those who are fighting for our country, the men and women in Afghanistan, Iraq, and other places we probably aren't even aware of.

To all, I say, God Bless America. May she stand proud and strong forever.


The Mighty Milligan Fourth of July celebration was a wonderful success. There were more relatives and friends of the family present than I've seen in a long time. 

The following pictures best tell the story.

After many hugs and kisses, we pointed the car to the north and west late in the afternoon and made our way back to Pentoga Road. Our bellies were full and after a day of laughter, swimming, and socializing, home looked pretty good. 

While watering last night, I realized how beautiful and patriotic Sargie's flowers seemed. 

It was a fitting end to a perfect day.


Today will be spent packing and getting ready to take Mom back to Indiana. I have a list of things to do a mile long, mowing the yard being one of them. 


Meanwhile, it's time to get in gear.

After all, a man's work is never done.


So are the tales from Pentoga Road...
