on the way from seatac airport to my son's hometown, we decided to stop for dinner at a golden corral restaurant in maryville.

the place was packed and had a waiting line, and it turned out they were providing free meals to all veterans or currently active military.

there were quite a number of guys wearing their vfw hats or similar identification, and many more who were not, but were easily identified by age as probable wwii vets.. we sat among them and ate happily, and i took time to study the crowd.

read this to yourself, as if you were reading aloud a childs bedtime story, i think your inner child might appreciate it.. the day out - a metaphor.

there was a good deal of excitement and laughter, everyone was looking forward to the trip.
