If you've never gone to the Blue Ridge Mountains, and you're ever North Carolina/Virginia way; I suggest taking a drive along the Parkway. I don't know how anyone can question God if they've been through the Blue Ridges. Aaron and I left around 8:00 yesterday morning, and we got back home around noon today. No rain; thank goodness. The campground area wasn't as crowded as I thought it'd be either.
Tonight was graduation. The pimple-infested, hormone crazed, driver's license dreamers that I had a couple years ago are now college bound, world changing dreamers. Sitting there, I can't believe it's been 22 years since I was standing in their shoes. Where does the time go?
I'd like to also take the time to remember the men and women who gave their lives so that it's even possible for me to freely visit the Blue Ridges, or for the Class of 2009 to jump into this world with open arms. On this Memorial Day, I salute the men and women who have given the greatest sacrifice; their lives, so that we might have freedom in this country. God bless the troops.
