A grateful heart: Remembering their sacrifice

On this Memorial Day, I am feeling intense gratitude for the men and women who have laid down their lives in the service of others. I've been scrolling through posts about parades, memorials, and images of the devastation of war (see here for a very poignant and artful slideshow of veterans' injuries). I'm thankful that people are remembering this day and the extraordinary sacrifices that enable us to camp, complain, BBQ, work, write, live and love freely.

I captured this shot of the B-29 "Fifi" at Oshkosh in 2012 before the sky broke open.
