Never heard of Richard Winters before.

The wkipedia link is interesting. The dude parachuted into Nornady on "D-day"
In my book this was one brave soldier. Yeah I know he was doing his job.
But he did survive and went on to complete a successful military career.

His after service business is interesting as well. Who knew that you could make animal feed from Hershey by-products?

I give this a "Yes" vote. But let's wait for a second yes vote before moving forward.

Nice post. Thank you.

Foxchase golf club. The parking lot was slammed, but the course was empty.
I think they were all sipping beverages in the club house Smile


Next up-- YVWNT a butterfly bush. They are just starting to flower around here. I always look forward to it every summer as they are one of my favorite plants.

I had to Google that too. Looks more commonly known in Oregon as Summer Lilac and some other varieties.

This is what we call a Butterfly Bush in Virginia. Let me know if it passes, and I'll select the next challenge.

The ones around here are just extended roof handicap vans with the side hacked out & a generator hanging off the back. Confused

C'mon folks, this is an easy one! Your local ice cream store counts as a vendor.

Remember, bonus points if it's a neighborhood ice cream truck.
