Happy Memorial Day! Thanks to all who have sacrificed for our freedom.
The flags look so beautiful on the Blvd! Such a beautiful place we live, I am very thankful for the great views.

Old Glory
By Peter A. Todd

Proudly we honor our Nation’s Flag
Its colors of Red White and Blue
To Americans it represents the freedom we have
And to be able to express our views
Crimson red is a symbol of blood that was shed
Through the battlefields in present and the past
Mixed with virgin white at the graves head
The memory of each soldier who died in time cast
How proud we are that our Nations Flag is flown
Through times of peace and the torments of war
To our children the true meaning of freedom shown
As Old Glory flies overhead and the eagle soars
We stand proud as we salute the flag of our Nation
As we retire the colors of its red white and blue
It is a reminder of our soldiers and their dedication
Who died fighting for Freedom and its justice too?
Freedom came from the Declaration of Independence
That we celebrate every Fourth of July
Through the wisdom of our Fore Fathers
That should never ever be denied
