We need to continue to share with our young people the meaning of this day lest it become nothing more than a long holiday weekend filled with beer and hot dogs.

Our fallen warriors deserve so much more.

Hi Friend!! I love the GWB quote and the G. Harvey paintings. Can you believe that we have friends who have a real G. Harvey painting? Man!

Hope you are having a wonderful Memorial weekend.
