10 November and November 11th fall together and have such cultural significance for my family and friends, I often write combined posts to celebrate and remember these two days.
10 November 2026 is the “251st” birthday of the United States Marine Corps. My father and a bunch of friends were US Marines and Veterans so this day holds great significance to the family and we try to do something celebratory to remember those who have served as US Marines.
Veterans Day is also a monumental day of the year…..celebrating ALL US Veterans whether they’ve seen combat or not….living or dead. This is the day to THANK A VETERAN and make sure they. know that you appreciated the work they do….as it really is work but also a calling for most.
So, I wanted to take the time to say “Thank you” to all US Veterans….around the world and make sure to mark this day with a post at least.
I usually write my random articles on Wednesday but this one isn’t random at all. It is meant to say thank you and remember our Veterans, wherever they are on this day. But I’m trying to post more content on Wednesday so stay tuned as I continue to write. Starting Saturday, I’ll start another travel series about summer roadtripping, this time to Canada and back. Monday I’ll continue to write about places we’ve been as I continue that travel series as well.
We’re a small family oriented blog/website dedicated to travel with family….(until our kids leave the house). We’re not really slowing down on our travels, but we often change the mode of travel…just to keep it fresh. Stay with us, more stories are on the way.
