It stopped raining today, long enough for our local Legionnaires to Dedicate an All Veteran's Memorial. My daughter Miss Rachel had the honor of being in the Jr. High Band that provided the music for the dedication. Along with the choir. There may have been a few missed notes and off notes. There may have been a few off key or cracking voices. However the kids did a great job representing their Community and their Veterans!
