Remembering our Veterans

Today I was lucky to go help at our local Veterans Home in Mateno Illinois.
Our church All Saints Lutheran put on a Bingo for the Vets. I have done this before but this time it was hard at first. The Troops come in the play Bingo. Some smiles, a couple grumpy guys but that's OK too, as not every body has all good days ( I know that first hand ).
I wondered how life has treated these Warriors?? Well I figured we better have some fun. Well being the Class Clown I figured lets hackle the Rev and the Bingo Callers. You see my Troop's weren't winning. Well my people started winning the more I hackled and all was well. A couple of the gents told me they had a good time and I said I did too. We served the group some Home Made treats. The troops were Thank full, I pushed a couple men back to their rooms. I thanked them for their service to our country.
Veteran Homes throughout the country can always use some home made treats for the warriors. At the Holidays the homes get a lot of stuff but, you can always drop off some goodies any time. Our family tries to drop off in January or February, Maybe you can pick a month any time to have a family bake-off. Then off to your veterans home to remember some veterans you will get that Warm Fussy Feeling .
Thanks for Your Time Wayne
