March

Our grandsons were having their birthday party yesterday, and we were headed out for Liberty Hill. 

Driving along Beltway 8, just past Hwy 249, we saw a huge parking lot swarming with hundreds of people in blue T-shirts.  They were gathering for a march in honor of the late Harris County Deputy Darren Goforth, and all of the law enforcement officers who risk their lives for our safety.

Houstonians must be out of step with the rest of the country – there were no fires, no looting and no reported injuries.  No one was arrested.

We missed the actual march, and made the birthday party with time to spare.  Fifteen hours and 400-plus miles makes for a long day, but it was worth it.  Bryce is 18 years old today, and Nash turns 15 on the 16th.  Both have become handsome young men.
