Memorial Day

And I’m proud to be an American,
where at least I know I’m free.
And I won’t forget the men who died,
who gave that right to me.
– Lee Greenwood
After church, hubby and I went to the cemetery to visit friends and relatives graves. The cemetery were already decorated with many flags in preparation for tomorrows special event the Memorial Day. May all have a great day tomorrow and be safe! Have a safe Memorial Day!

So many lives lost in wars that were supposed to be the end of all wars. So many lives lost in wars that came after the wars that were supposed to end all wars. When will it end?

Looks similar to a cemetery near us. I had to do a double take to see if it was the same.

quilly said...

Thank you for your photo. We are both down with colds and didn't leave the house yesterday. Plus our family burial plots are far away from where we live. I know my grandfather's grave would have looked much like these. Thank you for helping me visit him in my heart and through prayer.

Dianne said...

Robin said...

I love the photos of the flags all in a line. It's nice that people continue to decorate the gravestones. They do it in our community as well.

Happy belated Memorial Day and Happy RT a bit late as well.

Thanks for visiting me!

I'm trying to figure out if its a problem on my end or if it's the blog.
Any responses would be greatly appreciated.
