Happy Memorial Day

Yes its the day after Memorial Day but I hope that everyone had an awesome weekend, and were able to spend some quality time with friends and loved ones. 


This photo is of my grandparents graves that I took over the weekend; my grandfather was a career Navy man who died in 1986.  He served in both Korea and Vietnam.  He met my grandmother in the Phillipines and they got married against orders (all servicemen were told to leave the local women alone).  According to my uncle, when he married my grandfather and his commander found out, he was sent to the brig for a few months (I think he said 3 months but I'll have to verify).  Anyway I wish I had asked more questions when they were alive....

Anyway I hope you had an enjoyable weekend!!
