The Cost of Freedom

What a different Memorial Day we are having this year!  My daughter who lives in Florida is having a family vacation at a resort in Florida with her grown adult family.  Others are postponing trips in order not to risk possibly getting the virus.

Below is a photo of Sophia who is my great granddaughter with Marshall who is my grandson in Florida and a beautiful cloud formation from that same trip..

No matter how we spend our Memorial weekend, it is a good time to pause and give thanks to all those who paid the ultimate price for our country.  The United States is a land of freedom which we all value.  I don't know of anyone who does not want to be told what to do.  In the United States we can voice our opinions and have freedoms that are the envy of so many nations around the world.

This weekend is a time to pause and silently give thanks to those who died in order that all of us still have the freedoms that we have.  It is a time of appreciation for all that we do have in this country.
