On Sunday there was a anti-military group from Tucson and Phoenix that came down to protest the presence of the base Fort Huachuca and its involvement in the original documents of prisoner interrogation. A group of vets and pro military people asked if they could use our parking lot to stage their counter protest. The fort closed the main gate and posted tons of MP’s. The Tucson based protest group was sponsored by the Tucson chapter of the Socialist for America and George Soros. There was no violence or issues. But 5 were taken into custody. They came down and made a
show then left. We were there all afternoon.
Bloom Country supports our military and we opened to show our support. We thank each and every one of our military men and women past and present.

The air is cooling and the leaves are preparing to change! Kids are returning to school and new shows are on our Televisions. The Fall Season is upon us! Autumn official starts on September 22nd, however no matter where you look the season is already changing, especially here at Bloom Country!
Most of us “Arizonans” can only remember when Fall brought trees shed their leaves and changing their color to a reddish hue and fall to the ground. While most of us don’t miss having to rake leaves, it’s easy to miss the vibrant colors that are abundant up north this season. Such colored leaves have come to be colloquially called “fall foliage.”
We hope this season when you are decorating your home to reflect the beauty of the changing seasons that you’ll honor us by placing one of our Autumn Designs in your home. Classic Cornucopias, Seasonal Arrangements and Harvest Baskets are a standard, however if you want something unique keep in mind our Autumn Harvest Bouquet designed eloquently in our exclusive Lenox Celebration Gift Bag.

The WTC Memorial
The September 11, 2001 attacks (often referred to as 9/11—pronounced “nine eleven”) consisted of a series of coordinated suicide terrorist attacks upon the United States, predominantly targeting civilians, carried out on Tuesday, September 11, 2001.
That morning, 19 men affiliated with al-Qaeda[1] hijacked four commercial passenger jet airliners. Each team of hijackers included a trained pilot. Two planes (United Airlines Flight 175 and American Airlines Flight 11) crashed into the World Trade Center in New York City, one plane into each tower (One and Two). Both towers collapsed within two hours. The pilot of the third team crashed a plane into the Pentagon in Arlington County, Virginia. Passengers and members of the flight crew on the fourth aircraft attempted to retake control of their plane from the hijackers; that plane crashed into a field near the town of Shanksville in rural Somerset County, Pennsylvania. Excluding the 19 hijackers, a confirmed 2,973 people died and another 24 remain missing as a result of these attacks.

The impetus for a National Grandparents Day originated with Marian McQuade, a housewife in Fayette County, West Virginia. Her primary motivation was to champion the cause of lonely elderly in nursing homes. She also hoped to persuade grandchildren to tap the wisdom and heritage their grandparents could provide. President Jimmy Carter, in 1978, proclaimed that National Grandparents Day would be celebrated every year on the first Sunday after Labor Day.
Happy Grandparents Day!!
