Memorial Day

What does Memorial Day mean to you? This morning as I was drinking my coffee in silence....and contemplating the day....I realized that I have so very much to be thankful for....and as I went to get the paper in my robe...I saw that someone had put our flags out. And that the neighbors were up and had begun to put their flags out. And I realized they all could probably see me in my winter robe (hint hint...MOM). So I went inside, got dressed in my summer uniform (black shorts, white tee) and headed out to take some pictures of flags around our community....

Flags at the cemetery.......


And I remembered that this day is to honor our people who have served our country...as well as those who have been taken from us too soon......

And those who served our country in good times and bad.....

And that life is for the living.


And for those who made my life just a little...or a lot...richer...Miss you....


For ties that bind....


For friends and neighbors.......



Who have spent their lives trying to make our community a better place....








Thanks....just sayin'.
