Happy Thankgiving!

We have so much for which to be thankful.  Everyone here at Saltbush Flats (all 99 of us) are so grateful for the many blessing we receive.  Our greatest blessing is family and all the love and strength and support that is given.
 

Enjoy Thanksgiving today and everyday remember and be grateful for all you have and receive.

Happy Thankgiving!


It Is the Soldier

It is the soldier, not the minister
Who has given us freedom of religion.
It's the soldier, not the reporter 
who has given us freedom of the press. 
It's the soldier, not the poet, 
who has given us freedom of speech. 
It's the soldier, not the campus organizer, 
who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. 
It's the soldier, not the lawyer, 
who has given us the right to a fair trial. 
It is the soldier, not the politician
Who has given us the right to vote.
It's the soldier who salutes the flag, serves under the flag,
and whose coffin is draped by the flag, 
who gives the protestor the right to burn the flag.
