“Let us rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance,
and endurance produces character, and character produces hope.” ~ Romans 5:3
It was the perfect day for a parade, and the Morgan County Sorghum Festival parade went off without a hitch. For a second year I was allowed to photograph from the D.A.V. float. This year, they lead the parade. The crowd seemed a bit thinner than years past, but they were no less appreciative of our men and women in service, like my mama with her bugle…
…and my daddy, left, and his buddy Jimmy Darrell Easterling (right), and the other men that make up the Morgan County chapter of the D.A.V. As a country we may have our differences, but as long as American men and women continue to serve in the U.S. Armed Forces, I have to believe as a nation we can overcome them. My folks have worked too hard for all of us not to believe in it. Faith comes in many forms.
