One Of The Nicest Movies Of All Time!

      Every once in awhile you come across a movie that just so remarkable.  I love movies based of actual events and people.  One of my favorites, that I haven't seen for a long while is "The Straight Story".
      Most people have heard of this story of two brothers who had a disagreement.  One becomes ill and the other (Alvin) takes his lawn mower to go see him because he can't drive a car.  It's one of the sweetest movies ever and if you haven't seen it.  I recommend you do, you won't be disappointed.  It really touches the heart!

Now almost to the date, I had to make the tough decision of putting Patch to sleep so he wouldn't be suffering in his last days. It has always been such a tough thin...

One year for my brother and two f...
