Memorial Day

When looking for a Memorial Day image I found this picture of the

WW I Memorial in Jackson, Mississippi, on the Library of Congress site.

I immediately knew I had to use that monument as a desktop to pay tribute to

all the heros who have so valiantly fought for our freedom yesterday and today.

As you celebrate Memorial Day please take time to reflect on our servicemen

who give unselfeshly of themselves so that we can live free.

God Bless America!

Wynken, Blynken and Nod

Our upcoming theme is "Stars" which immediately brought me to this desktop

of "Wynken, Blynken and Nod" which was one of my favorite childhood rhymes.

I had memorized it years ago but have forgotten much of it since then.

The poem was written by Eugene Field and published in 1889;

if you've never read it you can find it here

The illustration is by Minnie Dibdin Spooner from the book

The Golden Staircase: Poems and Verses for Children and is in the public domain.

This is a large desktop and can be saved to your computer by clicking on the image.

If you need a 1024x768 size you can find that here

I hope you enjoy "Wynken, Blynken and Nod" as much as I.
