Memorial Day came on an early date this year....
For arrangements I had to settle on decorated rocks with personal messages....

We decorate forty graves each year.....
Starting at the National Cemetery....

Then on to Rosario Cemetery--where we have the most loved ones.....

Dwight cleans our favorite grave.....
Someday we will be here "Under the Elms"....
Happy to be here today....
"Under the Elms"....
Day Two of our Memorial remembrances...

Remembering Serena at her descanso along the highway....
Then on to Memorial Gardens....
Dwight cleans more stones....

Fairview Cemetery--once the loveliest in Santa Fe has fallen on dark days....

Then on to Galisteo.....

It is consoling to take a bit of time o remember all those who we loved and who are no longer with us....
