Memorial Day
It was so cold that it was hard to imagine that Memorial Day, all the way at the end of May, was even a thing that would ever happen.

On the fly
Cold weather must be on the way: the Canada geese that winter here are arriving.

War Memorial, with chairs
Some people might think stopping at all these different cemeteries would get redundant. Those people would be wrong. For example, this is the first time I’ve spotted metal folding chairs facing opposite directions in front of a war memorial.

West Texas is a quite a ways from the closest ocean – about 500 miles – so it is a little bit of a mystery about these oyster shells that have been pressed into the rough concrete on these graves. I see this sort of regularly in my wanderings and always wonder about the process of it all.
These markers are in fairly good condition; most of the time all the shells are broken, by our wicked summer hail or by vandals: I do not know.
