A place to share ideas on making a comfortable home. I do it through quilting, being faithful to my Faith, and caring for my family. Being a Catholic, sewing, and baking cookies are a few of my favorite things. I'm open to discussion!

Utah Beach . . .
I think one of the most moving places we visited on our tour was Utah Beach. It is a beautiful beach and area. It was hard to imagine how it looked on the D-Day Invasion. An odd feeling to have seen old war photos of the beach and see my son standing alone in the same place on a calm and sunny day.
Utah Beach was the code name for the right flank, or westernmost, of the Allied landing beaches during the D-Day invasion of Normandy, as part of Operation Overlord on 6 June 1944.
