National Holiday


Last weekend was the nation’s time of observing our fallen military personnel.  For many others, it was a time of visiting the resting place of their loved ones.

My grandmother will be turning 95 at the end of June.  The past few years my daughter and I have taken her to Coeur d’Alene and to the Northside of Spokane to visit three different cemeteries and the family members buried in each.

This year she was feeling a bit under the weather (nothing alarming) so my daughter and I went to the cemeteries on the Northside of Spokane for her.

The sight never fails to amaze me.  Flags waving in the breeze, flowers adorning many graves and the cemeteries bustling with families stopping to pay tribute to loved ones.
