Another short read
Today is the birthday of the Marine Corps. My step-father served in the Marines as well as my step-brother; as well as few relatives. I’ve know a few others who were in the corps over the years, but not sure if I ever met a female veteran who did as of yet. I wrote my acrostic as a birthday type piece for them today. I had planned to read this to a group of guys today that planned on meeting for drinks at my one vets club. They are Marines and every year they get together. Unfortunately they can not due to our club being closed for deep cleansing due to Covid. I will eventually give a copy to the one who sponsors the get together.
Area code is whimsical as I had to do research on the number in my state. As of this morning at 1:00am we have eighteen.
My thankful today is for neighbors. I have good neighbor we can rely on to do things for us such as grass mowing and recently power washing.
It’s Tuesday....I hope everyone has a good day and as always Stay Safe.
THANKFUL REFLECTIONS Day 10
Today I’m thankful for NEIGHBORS. I’m fortunate to have few good ones. The one keeps our lawn mowed and will do other things for us. You need a good neighbor you can rely upon.

Marines Corps birthday it’s today
And a OORAH to you all
Right in the thick of things always
In air, on land and sea, the Marines
Never do they shirk their duty
Elite branch of the military are they
So happy 245 birthday Marines

Area code we do celebrate today
Right now mine is 8-6-3
Every state has one at least
And some have more than three
Cause it depends how big is the state
Of course population demands are a factor
Did you know my state has eighteen
Evidentally I reside in Florida
