Sometimes we don’t realize how important and meaningful this one day is suppose to be.
I love reminders like this to keep my head straight.
Thank you for your service and sacrifice.
Happy Memorial Day.
God bless America.

Our flag is back!!
When we first put up our flag pole, the flag that came with it was a really cheap, foreign-made thing that shredded in just a couple of months. It looked positively disgraceful. I couldn’t stand it, so I yanked that sucker down.
See, I’m a firm believer in NO flag beats tattered flag–unless there’s a war going on and we’re being shot at…if you get my drift.
I ordered a new, true blue, made in America, double stitched on every stripe…flag. It’s beautiful and hopeful and encouraging.
At any rate, this pretty thing is here and waving—just in time…
for Memorial Day.
Hand on heart.
