Today marks the one year anniversary of my blog...but it's a much more important day..Today we salute and remember our Veterans. Because of the sacrifices of our men and women in uniform our Flag is a symbol of freedom and flies over the greatest country on the face of the earth.
I visited Veterans Memorial Park in the little town of Oldsmar.
It is a beautiful park on the upper end of Tampa Bay and it remembers the soldiers this small town has lost
Granite stones like this one filled with the names of heroes lost
The park is beautiful...very quiet with places to sit and think
A magnificent osprey keeping watch over the park
I sat here and thought about how many brave soldiers have died so I can sit here
One last reminder that freedom isn't free
An empty stone where more names will surely be added...Thank you to every man and woman who has served or is serving this great country...the United States of America
Thank you to those who have served and those serving. You have sacrificed much for our freedom.
