Happy(?) Memorial Day? Yes, happy knowing there are those who gave some, and some who gave all in past wars and conflicts, so that we can enjoy the freedoms we have. Having been raised by a Commander in the US Navy, the holidays to celebrate and remember those who have served, have always been time for me and my family to reflect and be thankful.
Having been turned down by the recruiters after college (they were all worried about a recent history of 4 fractures in my right leg ...), I was honored when my son enlisted. He is completing his 4th year, Combat Engineer, 2 years to go on this commitment. He is currently somewhere in Afghanistan. These holidays now take on a very different meaning.
Everyone, be safe out there. Remembering and celebrating, from
Inks Lake State Park (Texas!).
