Memorial Day!

On a day like today my heart goes out to all of you who have a family member serving in the military or who have lost a love one protecting our way of life no matter where in the world.

 I took this photo in DC while walking around and enjoying the beautiful buildings

Also, enjoy the last day of May... especially if you live in hurricane zones because tomorrow starts "Hurricane Season" along with 6 months of constantly watching the weather.

Have a great day and enjoy your delicious BBQ's!!!

  5. happy memorial day to you too. such an important day that the older i get the more i realize the importance....
    ugh... i am not looking forward to this hurricane season. we have a house on the gulf coast, where the oil is and it is also supposed to be a really bad hurricane season. i don't think I or anyone on the gulf coast can handle any more bad news.....

  6. Happy memorial Day - Nice picture of the flags - nice and simple. I know what you mean with Hurricane season - I lived in the Caribbean - so I understand watching the weather.

  10. Living near DC and Bethesda Naval Hopsital - or any military hospital - it's a reality check that Memorial Day is NOT the only day we remember our veterans, military, soldiers...I agree. When I visited a friend who had lost both legs in Iraq - I realized the enormity of what this war has done to our young. We started gathering packages for the families and patients. I didn't even realize what was needed so close to home and how much my neighbors would help out...but they were wonderful. Jennifer

  15. We brought flowers to the Airforce memorial in Arlington, Va. We started a new tradition, each year we're going to bring flowers to a different memorial. Next year, Iwo Jima. This really helped our little ones understand what this holiday is for.

    It's a courageous and honorable what our troops and their families do for this country.
