Medal of HonorWe really enjoy sharing about internet marketing for real estate here.  It’s quite fun and the e-mails and comments we get really make it more fun to share.  Today, is a special day and w thought rather than put up a post about a new topic, that we woudl simply take a break to say thank you.

Veteran’s Day is wonderful day to say thank you to those who have served. We always find it odd that more people don’t say thank you to those who have served. Our father served in the Air Force, and our grandfathers served in the Navy and Army so we are very thankful for their service.

The simple freedoms that we enjoy on a daily basis seem to often be forgotten by many.  The simple act of this blog could be censored in China.  Yes, in China, the government edits blog posts, comments, and more to control their internet.  Imagine, not being able to research and learn freely?  That is certainly not a place that I want to ever be.

Joe and I were watching a special on the Medal of Honor put on by PBS.   It is truly hubling to watch this special and gave us an even greater appreciation for what many have done to protect our freedoms. One of the most amazing aspects of this special was the humility of those who have earned this highest distinction. Not a single one ever called themselves a “hero”. In fact most shrugged that title entirely and simply stated that they did what was needed at the time for their fellow soldiers and for their country.

Truly we don’t have enough space here to write about what our Veterans have done. We have a great respect for the military and for those who have served. We try to say it everytime we meet a veteran, but it’s worth saying again; Thank you. Thank you Dad, thank you Grandpa (x3), and thank you to all of those who have served.  We certainly couldn’t even have this simple blog without you paving the way.
