and thank you, yes, it is a very restful and peaceful place except the couple of times a year 100's show up for events.

In the US this is Memorial weekend - a time to remember the sacrifices men and women have made so our flag remains flying over a free land. Other countries have similar celebrations. Because we are a diverse, international group, post your flags, post your remembrance day observances where you are. Here's one to get the challenge started. I believe I have posted this before.


Great sentiment. I heartily support it. For the reasons you describe of the nature of the holiday, the phrase "Happy Memorial Day" uttered at the time by our steamed President, was singularly inappropriate. >Alan

Thank you. Volatile times, so my personal goal wherever I post is to keep my eye on the focus of the challenge/post regardless of my opinions or experience. Difficult to comprehend what is happening around me let alone the divisions occurring between long time friends - isolating individuals even further. Keep snapping and finding some beauty and personal peace through your lens.
