It is Memorial Day, a day we take to remember those who served and fell protecting or establishing our freedoms. I made my annual trip to three graveyards yesterday to put flags on the graves of family members that once served our country. Started out at Arnettsville, went to East Oak Grove and ended up and Mount Union was our final stop of the day. We had brought some Gorilla Glue to fix Jean's vase, but when we got there we discovered Pam and George had already picked up the broken monument and had it at their home to clean up and repair. I make this trip annually to all three grave yards.
ON the local front, the WVU Baseball team lost the Big XII Championship yesterday, but found out last night that we are one of the 16 host locations for the NCAA regional. They will announce the other three teams that will be in Morgantown today for the four team competition for an invitation to the Super Regional and an invitation to the College World Series. This is the first time WVU has hosted a regional game since 1955, so congratulations to Coach Randy Mazey and this years squad on a very special season.
We got one hell of a hail storm last night, it was a torrential downpour with quarter sized hail falling from the sky. Not sure if it caused any damage around town, I didn't see too many Facebook posts addressing it last night.
No idea what we are going to do today, it may just be a day to relax.
Have yourselves a great day and a very Happy Memorial Day
