This Mancat Monday is also Memorial Day - a day to remember those who we lost in wars. Lots of people also have barbeques and family get-togethers to day too. Aunt Cheri's family, when she was little, would go to the cemetery and put flowers on all the graves of loved ones, not just those who served.
We also included the remembrance poppy (Papaver rhoeas) which has been used since 1921 to commemorate soldiers who have died in war. These poppies are from the local organic farm. Thank you to all who served!
Now when is this parade coming through?????
Wishing everyone a safe and happy holiday!
