This isn't just a long weekend, today is a solemn day, a time to recognize and honor the ultimate sacrifices of those who served our country so we could live free. They aren't just names on a wall, plaque, or brick!
The pre-race festivities at the Coca Cola 600 on Sunday was spectacular and personally invoked tears. What a wonderful organization.........they went the extra mile to thank and remember those who served and did not come home!
It's good to take time to just breathe and reflect. I'm enjoying the beautiful and plentiful blooms our Rhododendrons, and Mountain Laurels.

'The husband' was at it again, trying to smoke his greatest brisket. It was nearly a 3 day process......but by the end we had this beauty to show off...perfect 'bark', and a lovely smoke ring. Me? I'm not a big fan of BBQ, but gosh it's fun to see someone get so excited and dedicated to cooking a piece of meat!!

I agree, the tribute prerace at the CC600 was nice, as was the flyover at the Indy 500. We also watched F1 and a MotoGP race, it was race day! That brisket looks yummy!!
