- The little town near my sister's river house has this lovely memorial to its fallen heroes every Memorial Day. I am grateful and thankful for the service of each one. This photo was taken last year, but it's where I am right now (back home later today).
See you Wednesday with river photos!

Hi Lynn - Memorial Day is special isn't it .. ours comes around in November - Remembrance Day.

That is a lovely tribute to our fallen heroes. Hope your weekend has been great.
There is a little spot like this in my town, too. I love that it is there and that these service people are not forgotten.
What a wonderful tribute. :)

A picture does indeed tell a thousand words. I grew up in a town like this and it brings me back to Memorial Day when I was a kid.
Very interesting - sorry I am so late - but better late then never - right? sandie
I hope your week-end was peaceful n enjoyable by the river at your Sisters. Great that you appreciate the dead who sacrificed to make all our freedom possible. nice the memorial has photos of the local soldiers- we just have several large bronze plaques with names in a garden qhere the ceremonies are held. Sorry you missed the parade too-
Thanks everyone! I am late answering comments on this one.
