Arlington at Christmas
Isn't it awesome?!? Thought you'd like to see it.
Rest easy, sleep well my brothers.
Know the line has held, your job is done.
Rest easy, sleep well.
Others have taken up where you fell, the line has held.
Peace, peace, and farewell...
Readers may be interested to know that these wreaths
-- some 5,000 -- are donated by the Worcester Wreath Co.
Of Harrington, Maine. The owner, Merrill Worcester, not
only provides the wreaths, but covers the trucking expense
as well. He's done this since 1992. A wonderful guy. Also,
most years, groups of Maine school kids combine an
educational trip to DC with this event to help out. Making
this even more remarkable is the fact that Harrington is in
one the poorest parts of the state.
