Rest In Peace

Village Cemetery
Buckland, Massachusetts

The sun came out...
the wind came up...
and flags snapped to attention.

A great picture you shared, but depressing as well. We never should forget.

Seems sort of sad seeing those flags waving there in the cold. What a lonely place.

Hey, it was your job to take down the flags after Memorial Day. It is neat they are still there but rigid Iowans put them up at exactly the right time and they come down exactly the day after Memorial day. I like the photo, it is cool that they are at attention.

I love this.
It makes me remember my dad and what a proud man he was.
