“I Will Do My Duty…To My Country”

Since Ryan is now in Boy Scouts, he has the responsibility of putting up the flags in our neighborhood on holidays. So on Memorial Day (what used to be a rare chance to sleep in), we got up at 6:15! The flags are literally 10 feet tall, 1 foot of which goes into a post in the ground. The flags are also pretty heavy. So I grabbed about 3 flags at a time to carry, while he ran to me, grabbed one, ran and posted it; ran to me, grabbed one, ran and posted it; etc. Since this was the first time we did it, we had a hard time finding some of the posts. Next time should be a breeze! And I’ll take pictures next time.
