I learned this AM that Independence Day July 4th, 2022, is named that, because the declaration of Independence was adopted to announce the colonies' separation from the kingdom of Great Britain on July 4th, 1776.
Son#2 the Pilot, was telling us that DOHA, QATAR, has a temperature of 42C--says it feels like a hot hair dryer is blowing on you--This is a picture of his breakfast--looks delicious!
I hope that where ever we live, we can dance in the rain--or the sun---and enjoy this day!

ReplyDeleteThank yu for praying for us--I shall pray for yu too! Lynda
DeleteThat is such an interesting story, Lynda, about your family. Glad your brother is enjoying himself. Your son’s breakfast in Quatar is also interesting. My whole family came to America in 1950 from Berlin. Parents had to go to night school to learn English and be able to pass the citizenship test. We became citizens in 1955. Sponsors from family paid for all of it, we were on a waiting list for years before we could come. Ethelmerz
ReplyDeletefrom Berlin??---so interesting eh?? Himself is from Jamaic-pbecame a Canadian citizen=-=It iOS so interesting to hear about yer family-lynda

My Grandfather 's parents came from Scotland--"WALLACE" was our last name--Lynda
DeleteHappy 4th! My Dads family came from Sweden via Canada (where he was born) and my Mom came over from France after marrying my Dad during WWII. My sister was born in the French Alps and I was born and raised in California. I did go back to France to stud for several years. Interesting where all our families came from. Have you thought about a family reunion to bring all your family together at once?
ReplyDeleteYes and this year we will get a family reunion-Lynda
DeleteOoops…that should say study not stud Lol
ReplyDeleteOh, that breakfast looks delicious!!
ReplyDeleteThat breakfast looks delicious-Lynda
DeleteWow your son's breakfast is real big. Looks good. Hope your brother is not travelling back thru Toronto. It sounds horrendous travelling thru it these days. Still warm today but tomorrow sounds rainy. I feel sorry for all the Americans trying to get back home today. Everyone seems to want to travel this weekend after not being able to for 2 years. Hope your daughter can make it up there this summer. Enjoy the day.
ReplyDeleteYes Son#2 lands in Toronto to-morrow--Lynda
DeleteWe sure can learn on the internet, can't we? I remember reading the encyclopedia, going to the library or calling the reference librarian!
