Memorial Day Weekend 2011

I am looking forward to my time off this coming Memorial Day weekend. I will be leaving the Adirondack Mountains and making my first travel to the Green Mountain State to attend Vermont Thunder, which is put on by Vietnam veterans to honor the fallen soldiers from that state and others. They will honor those who are MIA and always welcome anyone who wants to attend. There is a ceremony at the beginning of the run and one at the end in Enosburg Falls, VT. This will be year five for me. I will return home for the night and will be over in Plattsburgh, NY for the ceremony at the park/wall there. This will be year four there for me. Disabled American Vets Chapter 179 puts on this ceremony and being some of the best people I know, I email and talk with them often. I try to support both groups knowing how much time and effort they put in for these great causes. Remember awareness of veterans is always important.
See you on the Road!
