POW Diaries-From their own words “On May 6, 1942, the valiant men of the 4th Marine Regiment were commanded to surrender unconditionally to the Japanese. My uncle Pierce L. Wardlow was among those who lived the next three years as prisoners of war. This is his story of that time.”  I nominate you for the Reader’s Appreciation Award

MASAKO AND SPAM MUSUBI– a Son’s writing about his father’s WWII experiences and other stuff. I nominate you for the Reader’s Appreciation. The way you tell your father’s story is beautiful and I am honored to be able to share it with you.

The Scottie Chronicles– This little Scottie is afraid of thunder and loud booms. His person has purchased one of those “Thunder Shirts” we have all seen on TV. He (I think he is a he?) has had it a short time and with me you can follow to see if it actually works. If it does I am going to buy one! Please let it work! For you The Scottie Chronicles, I pass on the Reader Appreciation Award! Thank for blazing unknown territory. I know it is uncomfortable at first but if it works it will all be worth it.

You all make blogging fun and interesting! You don’t have to accept the award if you don’t want to but I just want you to know I for one am reading your blogs and I thank you for keeping my life interesting. It is kind of like reading living books here and how awesome is that.
