Memorial Day

Dad and I had a nice memorial day. We went - once again - to the memorial program at Los Gatos cemetery; put some nice flowers on Emily's grandparent's grave. The program is always fun with band music - talks (this year by 4 "waves" - they were really fun) plus wreath placing, dove release, gun salutes, & of course a well done flag ceremony: plus free food. Hot dogs, doughnuts and drinks and flags for everyone (we also put our flags on the Burton's graves.

Lots of nice people there.

Here's a patriotic picture of Dad/Grandpa. You don't see this everyday!!! It was taken at the Empire State building - at about 1:30 in the morning. We didn't waste our time while in New York City - used every minute.

Pig hands, from petting wet pigs.

I put most of the pictures from the farm on my own blog, maybe we need to look at making this a public blog again, anyone?

A few more, more pictures from Katie's house

Very cute huggy goodbye hugs.

Twister with Dad/Grandpa he was in charge of the spinner.
