Quote of the day for May 29. The Following quote is from Go Tell the Bees I am Gone by Diana Gabaldon, Chapter 24, Alarms by Night. Copywrite 2021, All rights reserved.

Today is Memorial Day in the US, a day to remember all who have died serving our country and protecting our freedom. If I was really smart, I would have a great quote for the day, but.....here's a different kind of memorial.

"One of the men dwew--drew--it, one night in the salon," Fanny said, moving aside a little so we could look.

It was no more than a sketch, but the artist had caught a spark of life. Jane had been lovely in outline, straight-nosed and with a delicate, ripe mouth, but there was neither flirtation nor demureness in her expression. She was looking half over her shoulder, half smiling, but with an air of mild scorn in her look.

"She's pretty, Fanny," Jemmy said, and came to stand by her. He patted her arm as he would have patted a dog, and with as little self-consciousness.
