Rise and Shine --- Memorial Day Weekend

Good Morning and welcome to the start of Memorial Day Weekend!

So, as we enjoy some nice weather, take in a parade, maybe have a cookout, it's a good a weekend as ever to get off the political slide.
There are wrongs on both sides of the aisle. All we can really hope for is there isn't any real damage.
Of course, the sobering thought of 1,000 American deaths in Afghanistan takes a bit out of Memorial Day.
The best Memorial Day we can have is one free of wars and conflict.
Maybe that's the best we can hope for.

Memorial day is the day to think of the dead warriors. It is not a political football to set up a idealistic position to end all wars.
The Military people know what they sign up for. They know the risks.

Please go buy 50 small flags and place them in a cemetery near your home. The Veterans and war dead most likely will have some marker of their service.

Feel free to join me in Arlington for the weekend, if your BBQ plans change.
