I support the move of the Confederate flag to a museum or perhaps to the pages of a history book. Americans of all stripes should work towards building a new heritage of inclusion, peace, love and reconciliation. As a southerner that flag does not speak for me because I live in the 21st century, not the 19th. We must all focus on building a new south where people of all races, genders, orientation and religions are free to live without fear.

This is one of their earliest songs but one that sticks in my head. It sounds a little inspirational if you ask me.

A Cody Dog Update

July 8, 2015 Tony Burgess 2 Comments

Our Cody boy dog had a growth removed from his ear last Wednesday. The vet had it sent to a pathologist for testing to see if was cancerous or not. Well today we get the call that its NOT cancer so its very good news. So we bought our boy a new toy and a special snack to celebrate. He means a lot to us so we wanted to do something for him. We thank God for this important development.
