Today is Veterans Day (observed) and I would like to take a moment to thank all who have served and are still serving. If you are reading this, please pause and send good thoughts and prayers to those who are still in dangerous areas of the world. Thank you for defending the freedoms that we often take for granted and I wish you all a safe return.
