I’ve had a wonderful and productive couple of weeks in Miami! We gave our FlagandBanner.com sign a fresh new look and, even more exciting, landed a BIG order with the Miami-Dade County Sheriff’s Office.

You know how your dog listens to what you say and picks up on certain words? Some of those words are useful for them to know, like sit, stay, or get down. But some others trigger untimely excitement when you are not ready to act on them, like walk, ride, or bye bye.
Can you believe this marks my 21st year of blogging? Some of my readers aren’t even that old!
Now I know why, at 70, my adrenal gland has given up the ghost, leaving me forever reliant on hydrocortisone. I would like to blame it entirely on the Keytruda medicine I took in 2024 for my melanoma, but I don’t think I can blame it all on the cancer curing drug.
