Memorial Day

Wishing each of you a restful and reflective Memorial Day.

Many think of Memorial Day as a day off and/or the unofficial start of Summer.  But it's much more than cookouts and pool openings. 

Today, I hope you remember the people who gave their lives in order to free us from a tyrannical king.

Remember those who fought, even against family and former friends, to preserve our country.

Think of those who gave all to protect our world from a fascist dictator. 

And the countless others who sacrificed in service to our country.

In their honor, observe the "National Moment of Remembrance". At 3pm local time, pause and think about the meaning of this day. 

Then get back to enjoying whatever fun summer-type activity you have planned for today!

Memorial Day

The last Monday of May is a day set aside to honor U.S. military personnel who have died while serving in the armed forces. 

As you are enjoying your cookout, watching the parade, or hanging out beside the pool or lake today - please take a moment to remember those who have fallen in service to their country.

Picture Memorial Day

The family had a quiet weekend, with lots of outdoor chores getting accomplished and some relaxing fun along the way.  I could describe our Memorial day for you, but I'll just let a few pictures speak for themselves.
