    I'm going Monday to visit my dad's grave to place his flags. My father would never talk about the military. He told us kids that we didn't need to know. The cemetery does a wonderful salute to Veterans, they place flags. The Veterans come do a full service.

I would not think so. Remembering all those who passed on. Your Plans sound good. I am still planting garden. Got carried away planting potato's. Wow Glad you caught the flags. So sorry you had to suffer loss of those you loved.

Oh, just a suggestion, you should check out the chest or head rig for your camera so you can be hands free. My apologies if you already have. Just rolled back into North Dakota from Florida for work this morning and it’s quite chilly here as well. Have a great day sir.
