I am at the Great Lakes National Cemetery.
I am hanging with one of my favorite veterans waiting to join other veterans and their families in cleaning the headstones of our veterans in preparation for Memorial Day.
ON EDIT: Did I say veterans enough?
The Gold Star Mom manning the Registration table has already brought tears to my eyes. Wish me luck holding it together today!
Oh, and to all of our DU members who served --
THANK YOU!!!! 
PS Please say hello to Melinda - she served in the Army during Desert Shield/Desert Storm.
