Title: Today - Wounded Warrior Fishing Trip to Chesapeake Beach, MD Post by: valhalla on 14-Aug-10, 08:58:31 AM I spent my morning today standing on the main drag in back of the house with the rest of the neighborhood waiting for a yellow bus. Inside that bus were our wounded warriors (Iraq and Afgan Wars) on their way to a day of fishing :steff: on Chesapeake Bay. Might be a bit breezy, but it looks to be a good day for fishing. These are the guys from Walter Reed in Washington, DC. Police escort, our soliders, and of course, the motorcycles. American Flags. People pulling off the road to wave the flag and cheer. Nice. I took pictures and I hope to share them later. Some of these guys might be missing a leg or two, but they are proving that won't stop them from fishing :steff: or anything else. Say a prayer of Thanks.

The real inspiration is that they aren't being stopped, and our lesson is just that. Live life to the fullest - every day - don't let the aches and pains stop you.
