MY 86th BIRTHDAY  BRUNCH, ,GIVEN DESERT, CANDLE AND A SONG


BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS ON THIS TREE, WHEN IN FULL BLOOM, THE WHOLE TREE IS ORANGE

AT 8AM EVERY MORNING, A BUGLE SOUNDS AND THEN THE NATIONAL ANTHEM IS PLAYED THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE 45 SQUARE MILES OF GUANTANAMO BAY.  EVERYONE STOPS WHAT THEY ARE DOING, STANDING AT ATTENTION,, THE MILITARY SALUTE DURING THE ANTHEM.  IF YOU ARE DRIVING, YOU STOP ON SIDE OF THE ROAD.  I NOTICED MANY PEOPLE AND MILITARY AT THE AIRPORT WITH SO MANY PEOPLE IN ONE SPOT, I WAS VERY MOVED.  AT SUNDOWN, REVILLE IS PLAYED.
IN THIS PHOTO, WE WENT TO THE TOP OF A MOUNTAIN TO HEAR THE ANTHEM…BRIAN WAS CHECKING OUT THE SCENERY RIGHT BEFORE THE ANTHEM.
