We began the day at a flag ceremony sponsored by the local American Legion post. Afterward I took Kate and Davis to meet some of the veterans who were in attendance so they could shake their hands and thank them for their service. I'm not sure the kids really knew what any of it meant, but the veterans seemed appreciative. I always tear up at these things, and today was no exception.
Americans have pretty much turned Memorial Day into a party holiday, and we were happy to oblige today. We had a few friends over to swim and BBQ. It was the perfect way to start out the summer.
