EARLY VISITOR IN THE RABBIT HOLE \ by Peno Hardesty

seems the holiday celebrations started a day early this year----lovely-----for years a vet---nam ---has sat out in front---by the gate----twice a year----the fourth and n ew years eve----don't know who he is---he doesn't say much---just sits with his blanket-----it is loud here tonight---headed out to hay up the old horse and there he was

i did not know you were here--let me get some tea
it's ok
no i have it--and garlic bread--right?

thank you

i heated the frozen bread and brought it out

thank you---this old cat is hangin around mind if he sits with me

let me get him some food

our national celebration should include everyone----mostly our vets---our vets who fought for our freedoms-----somehow we seem to have forgotten them------

ptsd is real

blessings y gracias to all who do what they do for all of us
