Picture of the Day - Challenge Coins
My goal this month is to take a daily picture of something that makes me smile.
These are some of the challenge coins that I have received over the last couple of years. In the military, we used to have to carry these coins as if we were challenged in a bar, and did not have them, then we would buy a round. I do carry some that I give to police officers and firefighters to thank them for their service

Picture of the Day - Retirement Poster
My goal this month is to take a daily picture of something that makes me smile.
This year, I celebrate my second anniversary of being retired from UPS after 23 years. Below was the poster my wife put together from my retirement party. This has been the second time I have retired, as I also retired from the U.S. Air Force after 20 Years. I was very fortunate to work for UPS, as when I was hired initially we were a Call center vendor supporting them, and the vendor went bankrupt, and UPS bought us out and made us a subsidiary.

Picture of the Day - Fountain
My goal this month is to take a daily picture of something that makes me smile.
This is a picture of the fountain in my backyard. It's incredible to see all the wildlife that uses it for nourishment here in Las Vegas. The bottom three photos were taken previously. We have seen Ravens (Crows), Small Birds, Humming Birds, and Lizards using it

The owner of the tuxedo store kept hovering over me when i was browsing, so I asked him to leave me alone.
He said, “Fine, suit yourself.”

Picture of the Day - Wooden Plates
My goal this month is to take a daily picture of something that makes me smile.
These wooden plates are hung behind my bar in the living Room. They represent all the places in Europe I was fortunate to visit while I was stationed in the United Kingdom. These plates were never really hung up until we moved into this house.
People ask me now that I am retired, Don't you want to travel and see the world? I let them know I was fortunate that while I was in the US Air Force, I was overseas for 17 of the 20 years I was in the military, and I got to visit Europe, Japan, South Korea, Iceland, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and Oman.
