Our own poster boy, David. (Thanks, Lisa)  Thanks, David, and all you Marines for your service.  Have a great day and have a piece of cake for us!

You will see that Gene and I attended a few Marine Corps Birthday Balls when we were in South America.  It makes you so proud to see the Marines in their finest.  Semper Fi!

 Gene and David, doesn't seem that long ago, eh?

A friend of ours, Douglas, on the left.  Happy Birthday, Douglas and all the Marines!

Wow, that pic of David and Gene is awesome! What handsome men you have! Douglas is pretty cute too:) Maybe it is just men in uniform.
