Was on a early Saturday solo ride the weekend before Memorial Day and passed Pinelawn National Cemetery. I've been there a number of times with my son's old BSA Troop for the "flag planting". I rode in and asked a group of old veterans if they mind if I place one flag. When they saw that I knew to use my foot to measure the distance they thanked me for taking time out of my ride. I thanked them for their service and sacrifice.

Next year i'll remember to join up with my son's old troop and go with them (in civilian cloths).
