THANKS
~THANKS~

Thanks for lifting me
''''high on your shoulders
Asking me to touch
''''the sky with you
Thanks for giving me
''''white gold and diamonds
Willing me to be yours
''''and share sweet nights
Thanks for giving me
''''the rarest gift of all
Allowing me to share
''''with you your child
Thanks for needing me,
''''holding me close to you
Granting me the flowers
''''our togetherness has earned

OurEcho is a FREE SERVICE dedicated to capturing and sharing the individual "bits and pieces" that define our local communities. It might be a bit of interesting local history, an old photograph, a special memory or just a funny story. We are particularly interested in those fascinating and intriguing events/people (both large and small) that we all encounter as part of the human experience. It might be something that happened recently or something passed down to you through your family. Our goal is to provide a forum for local communities to share who they are through their stories and photographs. When you take the time to share these reflection with others, you help us better understand you, the world we live in, and if we are lucky, they help us better understand ourselves.
