Memorial Day

We spent part of our Memorial Day a little different than we ever have before.
There was a little parade in town and we went to watch that, following the parade people met in the town common and there were many military men there and they had a little presentation.



The flags are at half staff(mast). They left them there as they read the names of the men from Northbridge who died in the wars.

This man was a soldier in WWII. He was the oldest military present.

After the parade, we spent a few hours at home and then went to a BBQ with some friends.
All in all, a great Memorial Day.
