Got up early this morning to get the smoker going. Didn't beat the sun but it was still early enough that the neighborhood was quiet except for about a thousand songbirds greeting the day from the Dogwood in the backyard. Clear blue sky, perfect temp, nice breeze, you can tell it's gonna just be a great day.
Then out of nowhere......on that breeze......comes the distant sound of Taps being played. Not perfectly, and I'm pretty sure it was a Trumpet and not the regulation Bugle, but my God did that just hit me right in the feels.
To everyone celebrating today here in the USA, remember to take a momement and reflect on what it costs to have days like this, and offer up a little prayer to the fallen who can't join us today.
