Activities one finds on an early morning walk in Westchester, CA 90045. As most of you know me, since I left the military I can safely say I have not seen more than 30 Sunrises. I manage to do late night activity and I prefer it that way.

Lately for many reasons I have had to break from tradition and do a few....(too many for my taste) early morning activities.

We have gotten to know quite a few neighbors thanks to our dog. It so happens one is a Korean War Veteran and a proud patriotic American. when he is outside we banter back and forth and we do not hold it against each other that he is a Marina and I am an Army person from a different time....

 

Needless to say I was there for "Reveille" also known as "First Call" in the Military. When music is played and the flag is raised. So needless to say I bantered with him that he did not play the music! Just to be clear every morning he raises the flag at sunrise and every evening he lowers the flag at sunset!

Hi Endre Barath, Jr. 

Such an important ceremony for us patricotic lovers of our country and our flag. I am glad I triggered such a good memory. I cannot recall but there was either a movie or a TV series where the neighbor went out every morning and blew taps and drove the other neighbors crazy. I am thinking it was Home Improvements with Tim Allen.

I often marvel at the small adventures I get into when I ride my bike in the morning.  I like to ride shortly after dawn, in the cool of the day.  We have the American River Parkway nearby.  The Salmon have began their run up the river to spawn.  It's always something to see.  There doesn't seem to be very many yet. The water is warmer than usual!

They say the early bird gets the worm . . . . Good for the bird . . . . Bad for the worm.

Sorry Endre Barath, Jr.  I do not recall a movie like Kristin Hamilton CA Realtor  mentioned .Maybe it was a TV Show .I think it is wonderful that your neighbor is proud to be an American . I am also happy kids in school still pledge allegiance to the flag .

Changing things up and seeing how the other world lives when you're usually doing something else, i.e., sleeping or blogging is a good thing! I really like this story. I had a simliar experience yesterday at the Dallas Arboretum, instead of taking photos of flowers, I took photos of people. It was quite interesting because people are for real (meaning human)! I look forward to reading more stories about your morning walks.

Kudos for rising with the chickens as my grandmother would have said.  Unlike you morning is my favorite time of day.  Compliments to your neighbor for raising & lowering the flag every day
