Today is honor of Memorial Day I planned to head to Sayville which usually has a lovely memorial service in Sparrow Park on Main Street. I checked the internet to find out what time I needed to be there and it said 11:00...but they were wrong. The service at the park was already over when I arrived around 10:30, and I just barely caught the tail end of the service in front of the Sayville Fire Department. I sketched two members of the color guard in front of the property as well as the memorial wreath.
When the service was over I went over to the memorial in Sparrow Park and sketched that too.
My gratitude to those who fought for our rights and freedom,
especially those who gave their lives for us.
Well said. Your sketch of the memorial is very touching.
ReplyDeleteI love the colors of the trees and the flowers! It makes it very warm.
