A day to honor those that served for our freedom.
Thank You.

My husband said today was his best Veteran's Day ever, here in Wolfeboro.

We visited the field of flags at Brewster field where over 1,000 flags with names had been 'planted' by the women of our local chapter of the DAR- it was very moving to see not only his name, but the names of family members and others we know. The field will be lit for another 6 days.
Then, we attended the VD program at the Wright Museum which had featured speakers, film clips and a crowd filled with veterans that were asked to stand up when their branch's song was played.
Afterwards, we enjoyed a free car wash at the town's car wash in Clark Plaza. During lunch, people came up to him to thank him for his service - that never happened in our previous hometown. Several area restaurants are offering free dinners as well.

NH has been rated the most patriotic state, and we are so grateful to live here year round and feel the appreciation from others. Happy Veteran's Day

Remember to thank the family members of our veterans and of those presently serving. They should never be overlooked. They have also sacrificed so much while working hard on the home front - supporting our country by keeping their family lives as normal as possible. I love watching the YouTube videos of service member homecomings. That always reminds me that multiple sacrifices are part of any family with members serving our country. We are in their debt.
