Quotable - McCain at Sturgis

“As you may know, not long ago a couple of hundred thousand Berliners made a lot of noise for my opponent. I’ll take the roar of 50,000 Harleys any day.  ...  I recognize that sound. It’s the sound of freedom!”

- John McCain - Bike Week - Sturgis, South Dakota

For those who don’t know, Sturgis, SD is the location of an annual motorcycle rally which ended today. 2008 was the 68th rally. John McCain spoke there to kick off the event. Here’s a link to the event site: www.sturgismotorcyclerally.com

I returned from an errand today and Nancy’s garden had exploded in pyrotechnic color. Thought I’d share.

When we built the house, we had different opinions about what to put in the front yard. My view: grass - doh. Her view: Flowers! Each summer, I am glad her point of view prevailed!
