Memorial Day

Man I'm just a little behind, oh well! For Memorial Day, we went to The National Veterans Cemetery where my Grandpa's grave site is. Mom and Lars rode the Harley and then Grandma came and got us in her car so it was less parking we had to find :) Every year they do a big program and it's wonderful! It starts about 8am so we have to leave by 630am or so. We were late so we missed the Fly Over and a few other short things. It's amazing how many people come to it. There must have been several hundred motorcycles! I didn't get a picture of them, dang it! They also put an American Flag on every grave! We heard that the Boy Scouts come and place all the flags a few nights ahead. What a long service project! 


why yes Bryson is still in his PJs. 630 is way to early for him!


only a tiny fraction of the graves with flags.
