This week-end we all pause to take a breath and peer backwards in astonishment at how fast this year is evaporating. We are also particularly holding in our minds the memory of those who gave so much that we might enjoy the liberty and freedom this nation offers in such unparalleled portion.
On Saturday at 7.30 a.m. the Memorial Day Flag Placement occured at the Los Angeles National Cemetery in Westwood. Hundreds of POW MIA’s, Scouts, Brownies Girl Scouts and Young Marines decorated the graves of the fallen with our national flag. The whole affair would bring a tear to your eye, especially when a breeze ripples through and sets the sea of red white and blue fluttering as if by one spirit.
Let us thank God and them for the benefits we enjoy.
The picture is of my son Oliver saluting at the grave of one of the fallen.

Neil, What wonderful pictures! You and the scouts did a great job. Excellent job on the tea brewing spot. When do you find the time? Love, Ginny
