    A very somber reason to have a holiday.

    Let us all remember the men and women who have given EVERYTHING for our freedom.

    As we usually do, we started our Memorial day joining with quite a number of local groups and individuals in placing thousands of flags at our local cemetery. It's considered to be a kind of "Arlington of the West". This was the first year I would place a flag on my own fathers grave, as he passed late last year. In addition I now pick up the mantle for my father in placing a flag and flowers at the grave of a fallen buddy, just as he did from 1944 to 2017.

    And to follow Franks note, "Thank you" to those who have served so that we can enjoy the freedoms we have.

    Lest we forget...
