Sunset and Charlie Daniels

A shot from my picture
window in the living room
at sunset.

Smack dab in the middle
of this pic is a flag pole.
That pole has not had a flag
flying from it for so many
years but it used to have one
all the time. My dad had this 
installed. And YES...I have
the flag that last flew here.
Found it when going through
mom's stuff. 

It is neat moving into a 
home and knowing its
history. Knowing how that
work bench in the basement
was built by dad and a friend.
Knowing that the garage door
opener has been there forever.
Knowing that the paneling in the
garage was installed years
after my family moved here.
Just the little things!

Found pics of a split rail
fence between this house
and the neighbors...totally
forgot that it had been there.
Thinking that dad might have
put it there, but can't remember
when it came down. I will 
ask Mark, my younger brother,
he lived here the longest, he
might know. But its the history
of my home, and I know most 
of it!

RIP Charlie Daniels.
Gone at 83 from a massive
stroke.

I personally feel that it is a shame
that a true American like Charlie
Daniels had to see the division of
the United States of America this
last few months. I hurt that this
man along with so many others
so the destruction of our southern
history. 

You see Charlie is a southern
icon. He lived right outside
of Nashville in the city next
to mine for as long as I can
remember. He will be 
missed. 
Matter of fact just
now heard on the 
news that within 
a couple hours of hearing
about his passing, 
citizens of Mt. Juliet
TN were lining the 
streets of Mt. Juliet.
The same streets that
were destroyed in the
tornado's of March 3rd.

Well, the devil went down to Georgia, 
but Charlie went straight to heaven. 
My heart, like many millions of others, 
is broken today to find out that we've lost 
our dear friend Charlie Daniels. 
It was such a 
shock. He was one of the 
great people in the 
business and one of the greatest entertainers ever. 
He will live on in our hearts. 
Rest in peace, Charlie. - 
Dolly

AMEN Dolly, AMEN.
RIP Charlie Daniels. 
What a year this has
been so far.

I loved Charlie Daniels too. He'll be remembered forever though. I've no doubt about that. Rest in Peace.

Have a great day, Pam. Scritches to the babes. ♥
That is a beautiful sunset. We were very sad to hear about Charlie Daniels, he was one in a million.

Always loved The Devil Went Down to Georgia. He will be remembered for that, and much more.
