On this Memorial Day

We've left Cairo, visited Angie in Hogansville, and are now in Wildwood.  On the way north we stopped in Kennesaw. 
I had not visited Grandma's grave since her death in August.  Here are Levi & Indi at my Grandma & Grandpa's grave:  Ben & Lorene Huckins. 

We were enchanted during our visited to the cemetery: an elderly gentleman in a wheelchair, visiting his wife's grave just a few rows away, played Taps perfectly on the trumpet he had brought with him.  He told us he did this each week in honor of her and her 23 years serving in the US Air Force.  What an honor for us to be present.
