Memorial Day Tribute 2014

This is the day when we think about what we have and why we have it. Men and women from the Revolutionary War to today’s conflicts in the Middle East have fought and to many have even given given their lives…the ultimate gift that a human being can give to their country. I wish it wasn’t necessary and hope and pray that it will soon not be necessary ever again. I am a Pacifist but I give my respect and honor to everyone who has ever served with our Armed Forces. Thank you for giving part of your lives. May everyone who has served find peace and healing. Thank you for your courage.

 

Today I worked in my garden and porch. There is much to do but I thought I would show you what is done. I hope you enjoy my pictures.
