I have a few minutes of free time, after all the little “honey-do” jobs that have been finally completed as a result of preparing our home of nearly 43 years for sale, so I thought I’d better catch up on the ole blog.
Barb Michieli, MAJ US Army retired, is a friend of mine from our days working at Seattle Children’s Hospital who sends me interesting items periodically. Below is a link to an article on the Military Officers of American Association website she sent me about “100 Veterans - 100 Years” that is a great anthology of significant veterans over the past century. http://www.moaa.org/Content/Publications-and-Media/100-Vets/100-Veterans---100-Years.aspx.
Our friend George Drago has been a continuous contributor to the 225th Observer. One item he sent me recently is about one of Rembrandt’s famous painting “Night Watch” that has come to life in a very surprising location. This is what he sent me…”The Rijksmuseum in Holland had an idea: Let's bring the art to the people and then, hopefully, they will come to see more - at the museum. They took one Rembrandt painting from 1642, Night Watch, brought to life the characters in it, placed them in a busy mall, and the rest you can see for yourself!”

Have a great weekend everybody!
