Koran burning

This man and his plan is such a wrong way of doing things.  The following so agrees with my way of thinking. Red letter discourse by John Fischer Most of you have undoubtedly heard of the Koran burning scheduled by the Dove World Outreach Center in Gainesville, Florida for Saturday, 9/11, under the direction of its pastor, Rev. Terry Jones. There is a lot of concern over this causing a violent backlash from the more militant sects of Islam, as well as a huge setback in attempts to establish some sort of civil dialogue with non-militant aspects of Islam as well.

KEEPING YOU INTERESTED  that is the goal of our blog!!!! I am  not  a technical geek  but I am learning all the time.  We pray that the end result someday  will be a blog that will be  incredibly creative with audio as well as photographic depictions of our lives on   The White Shell II.   This lifestyle of adventure and newness with constant change  will be our story to you as  Cruisers and will  be our connection with you.

That is when we first met and fell madly in love!!!  You bet the stars were brilliant and the fire works went off!!! The lights went on in our hearts!!! I will begin my celebration here on the blog with some comparisons of the happy couple:  Claes and Lue.  These  have been noted over the last few years-- did I say 34??

The Tillman Story

Image
A new movie opened this past week  that tells the story of the cover-up that surrounded the death of Pat Tillman, NFL star turned combat soldier in Afghanistan. Spurred on by the love of his country, the violation of its freedom on 9/11/01, and his sense of duty, Tillman forsook his lucrative NFL career and joined the army. He was subsequently killed in Afghanistan. The movie portrays the truth about his death.
