Remembering, Memorial Day, 2015

Please enjoy your long Memorial Day weekend but take a few moments to ponder why it is we even have a Memorial Day. It is a day for remembering and honoring the men and women who have died while serving in our United States military forces. Go here if you need to put a face to this day.

I didn't have poppies to put by the path where I left a Give-Away pot but did the best I could.


 
In Flanders fields the poppies blow
Between the crosses, row on row...
