Battered & Tattered, Yet, How Proudly It Waves!
Veteran’s Day, November 11, 2009
Following is a guest post from some dear friends. Thanks to all veterans on this day and every day! Lest we forget, “Freedom Isn’t Free”
Post by Larry & Nancy Thoney:
While traveling across the Navajo Reservation in the Monument Valley in AZ last winter, we saw an American flag flying in spite of what had obviously been some very hard times. It was symbolic and we had to have that picture!
The ragged, tattered old flag reminds us of our country and the fact that it has also been through some trials and tribulations, but never-the-less our life style and independence have prevailed. The reason our flag has continued to fly proudly, in spite of all, is largely because of the sacrifices of Veterans such as yourself.
Thanks so much for your contributions. We Americans are forever grateful!
Happy, Healthy Trails to you and yours.
Two Appreciative Americans,
Larry and Nancy Thoney
