Default Heart warming story

Arlington at Christmas

I thought this was a very heart warming story about a man who wanted to honor the veterans buried at Arlington during the Advent season by providing and helping to lay 5,000 wreaths. What a wonderful project for school kids to get involved also. Here is definitely a case where an older generation is passing down a great tradition to the younger generation.

Rest easy, sleep well my brothers.

Know the line has held, your job is done.

Rest easy, sleep well.

Others have taken up where you fell, the line has held.

Peace, peace, and farewell

Yes, the +1 and I are planning to walk over there, perhaps when his kids visit, to see them and take some pics.
