This one was a little more meaningful to me than the others because my Step Dad Retired MSG William J.(Jim, Pappaw) Starner was among 162 York County Veterans to have their names engraved on the newest Memorial at Prospect Hill Cemetery. It is called the Court of Valor and certain requirements needed to be met to be included. He was added for 2 Bronze Stars in Vietnam.
Here he is being interviewed by a local TV station, WPMT Fox 43. They would have to do a 30 minute documentary to hear all of what he said!!
At the top you can see a piece from the World Trade Center. Everyone was amazed that the final measurement of the 10 Feet section actually was 9'11"!

Nothing particularly grand in the Tea Party in Mission Viejo. We didn't have 10s of 1000s of people and celebrities. But we did have our citizens...moms and dads and children and teens and grandparents and homeowners and store owners. While Ted Nugent was at the Alamo, we did get our local "Diamond Tom" who sang combinations of patriotic songs and Jimmy Buffet....what? :)
My son is on the right!
My son and his friend...
This couple has tea bags all over!
This tea is from the same company who provided the tea to those early Patriots which ended up in the Harbor. The company is still in business today.
This one lonely guy.....trying to tell us to "Pay our Share". I overheard him telling a woman that no one should be allowed to make more than $100,000/year until everyone can pay their bills and feed their children. Ok....so I asked him if he was willing to do all it takes to get a real estate license so that once we have all sold enough homes this year to hit $100,000 he could sell the next home?
"What"? was the response.
I asked him what he did for a living. He's a plumber and having a tough time since construction isn't happening very much. I told him I was sorry he was having a tough time, but in this economy perhaps he should only handle one job a month until everyone was fed.
"That's not the same thing"
I think it is....until all plumbers can feed their families....you should not take more jobs than you absolutely need to feed yours.
I did take his card....I'm happy to have another plumber to use. I also told him that I do pay my taxes, and apparently I pay his too.
Well, I finally finished our taxes right when it was time to hop in our car and head downtown to the Palm Beach County courthouse plaza for our local area National Tea Party peaceful demonstration.
Our 'Don't Tread On Me' Tshirts arrived on Tuesday and we proudly wore them on April 15th!
There were over 1000 people at our event. It even started raining about an hour into the event but that did not stop anyone from expressing their patriotic voices for liberty and against more taxes. There were over 16,000 people at the Alamo in Texas rally and near 20,000 in Atlanta's rally.
There were Democrats, Republicans, Independants, Libertarians and non party affiliated people participating and voicing their love for our Constitution and our founding fathers.
There was even some new party forming called 'The Constitution Party'. I did not have the time to really find out what they were all about.
I took a lot of photos. When I went to take video with my flip video camera it was already full. Then I started to video tape with my Sony Handycam which is what I use now for still shots and the DVD disc was full! So much for being prepared! So then Nestor reminded me that I could just use ResPres's Real Estate Shows and put our video together from the still shots I was taking. Thank you Nestor, that made me feel a lot better!
It was interesting to see all the different signs and what people believed in. There were no nut cases in our crowd. There was no littering, no foul language and no violence. Just a peaceful protest and exersising our right of free speech.
It was so refreshing to see so many young people out. We had a high school speaker, a young economics college student speaker and parents brought their children with them. We brought our son. He wanted to go because he says he wants to save his money. It was so cute to watch him get all excited shouting, "USA, USA, USA!"
When we said the Pledge of Allegience our son at 6 years old proudly places his hand over his heart and knows how to recite the entire Pledge of Allegience without help. Of course, in home school we say the Pledge of Allegience every morning after morning prayers. The crowd burst into song with our nation's national anthem. We had speakers from both parties who are against the runaway spending, taxes and irresponsible government officials who no longer listen to the voice of the people.
People can call us fools, can call us extremists, nut cases; all the name calling in the world is not going to stop us any longer from speaking with our voices and peacefully protesting. I felt good to be there. I felt like I finally was at a rally I truly believed in. It was like coming full circle from the radical protests my mother used to bring me to in the 60's!
Now that the National Tea Party is over, our work has just begun. Today is the day to fax and call your Senators and Representatives. Do not email them. I found out that they are getting so many emails they can not even read them all anymore. So write letters, fax letters and make phone calls. Tell them to vote no on the budget. Tell them to repeal the tax hikes, tell them to stop the bail outs. Tell them to set term limits and stop giving themselves and their staff bonuses and raises.
