After Sue and I married, it was wonderful to have our mothers be excellent friends.  They would talk all the time, get together, add my aunts to the mix, and just have a great time.  We lost Georgia in 1990 and then Rita in 1999 but we had several years to enjoy them together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2019\/05\/paulw_georgia_1946.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"582\" height=\"972\" src=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2019\/05\/paulw_georgia_1946.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-37870\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2019\/05\/paulw_georgia_1946.jpg 582w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2019\/05\/paulw_georgia_1946-90x150.jpg 90w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2019\/05\/paulw_georgia_1946-180x300.jpg 180w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2019\/05\/paulw_georgia_1946-337x562.jpg 337w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 582px) 100vw, 582px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Dad and Mom&#8230; 1945  (70+ years ago) &#8230;Yes, that is me!  <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sue&#8217;s Mom was someone very special.

GREAT!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Returning home about 9:30 PM, we watched the fireworks in the rear-view mirror of the Silver Ghost!

Romantic indeed. Kelvin measure of the color of a light source relative to a black body at a particular temperature expressed in degrees Kelvin (K). \u2026 Warm white LED Lamps have a color temperature between 2700-3500K. Lamps rated between 5000K and 6000K are viewed as white, while lamps above 6000K tend to have a blue cast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" src=\"http:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2019\/05\/kelvin.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-37912\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2019\/05\/kelvin.jpg 600w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2019\/05\/kelvin-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2019\/05\/kelvin-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/lilesnet.com\/dailydiary\/wp-content\/dailydiary\/uploads\/2019\/05\/kelvin-450x300.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption>Romantic is a great way to enter the home!<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We watched some TV, answered a couple of phone messages (Happy Mother&#8217;s Day) and crashed!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My mother gave me the greatest gift anyone could give another person, she believed in me.&nbsp; It&#8217;s Mother&#8217;s Day and time to celebrate with some memories.
