Janeckas Visit Czech Republic

Ed and Margie Janecka were recently in the Czech Republic and visited with Jana Vohralíková at the Czech Castle. Miss Vohralíková is the chief of staff to Petr Pavel, president of the Czech Republic. They discussed matters of interest of both countries. One interesting opinion expressed by Miss Vohralíková was that in the Czech Republic she feels that sometimes some people don’t want to talk. They just want to argue. Both Ed and Margie think that is certainly what could be said about the United States. This week is the 34th anniversary of the Velvet Revolution, which started on November 17, 1989. Since that time the Czech Republic has emerged as a beacon of freedom, innovation, and stability.
