I called this painting, The Sentinels. When you look from the house to the flag by the mailbox, it looks like our tall loblolly pines are protecting the flag. The flag is such a patriotic symbol for me. When we were in South America and I would catch a glimpse of the U.S. flag flying at the Embassy, it made me so proud.
I meant to get this post up early this morning (Saturday, November 11, now it is the 12th already) and was sidetracked. I feel we owe so much to our military and their families. My brother was in the Army and was in the invasion of Normandy. His brother in law was in the Army and killed in Korea. Our son was a Marine, (well, once a Marine always a Marine), but is a civilian now. My spouse was in the Air Force. So to them all, I wish a Happy Veterans Day, and give thanks for their service.
