Well, here we are again, the unofficial start of summer. And although we're under a different set of circumstances than in previous years, I'm sure we'll all find ways to decompress and put the woes of the last few months behind us, if only for a three or four day weekend.
Growing up, Memorial Day weekend was always when my mom made us go out to the cemetery and ensure the flowers were ready for the summer. Also, we ensured the flags were in place for those of our relation who had served our country.
With all that in mind, let's pause to reflect on the solemnity of those places around the Twin Cities and view those hidden details we seem to overlook in a hurry to get to our parades or barbecues.
Enjoy the weekend!
