Put another Memorial Day in the record books.
Is it just me or does it seem to rain every Memorial Day.
I made good on the promise I made to myself years ago. I never served in the military. It's a point I am acutely aware of - and in fact a part of me wishes I had that experience. I have a tendency to walk very carefully when it comes to the military and veteran stories because the truth is I just don't know. I wasn't there. I have no idea what they went through.
So yes, I made it downtown for our area's Memorial Day Parade, just as I do every year.
And once again my mind wandered to the little town where I grew up, and a couple of very special Memorial Day memories.
It's in this week's Letter From the Editor.
