Happy Veterans Day Holiday
Yesterday was Veterans Day, and today is the federal Veterans Day holiday. In honor of the occasion, I am wearing my patriotic skirt. Why aren't I wearing a top? I do not know.
See, for a while in Casper, he was the last surviving veteran of the Spanish-American war! If you read the article, you can see he was a real character. He attributed his longevity to smoking cigars! My Mommeh says she can still remember him a little bit. I sure wish I could have met him.
Happy Veterans Day holiday everybuddy, and a big Thank You to all of our veterans!
ps: Today on the PetMeds Pet Talk blog, you can read a Veterans Day poem I wrote!

Wowee! He sure was a great guy! Now I know where Harley gets his spunk from! :)
that is so cool!
We enjoyed reading about your great (more times) grandfather - it is important for us to know how our ancestors lived in "their" times. It was so interesting t read the newspaper article too.

American History is the best! What an honor it is to have a relative that contributed to the story of American Greatness. I wish more people would learn about American History. It is truly inspiring.
Have a great Day!
Our paws are UP for all veterans...
Daisy, I LOVED reading that article about your many times great grandpa. That's the spirit and reason for our Veteran's Day, to celebrate folks like him both long ago and presently who fought and sometimes gave their all for our Country and other Countries too.
Sounds like he was a great man. I'll have to start smoking cigars... Now go put on a top.
Heh-heh, sounds like the G-pa was a hoot! We think you're not wearing a top to celebrate and honor Veteran's Day - The Right To "Bare" Arms! MOL!
That's a very cool article! You're right! He was quite a character. I think Glogirly needs to get me 4-5 nip cigars! MOL!
Thanks for sharing this with us today.
Hope you find your top.

You look cute in your skirt. I wouldn't have thought anything of no top. That is a fun article about your great great great grandpa. My mom loves old photos and family history. I wonder if he liked cats?
Oh Daisy, your great great great great...grandpa was really great!
You look stunning in your patriotic skirt. I'm sure he would wish he could meet you, too :-)
What a lovely tribute my dear.
How neat that you were able to share a little about your great great relative today. Of course your patriot skirt is a great nod to the holiday, too.
I think it's wonderful that your Mommeh kept that article. I like your patriotic skirt. Thank you so much for your kind words about Herman. He and I found each other at just the right time and he gave me as much as I gave him.
