Freedom Is Not Free

It has been a Memorial Day tradition at BeeLine to showcase the beautiful photography of Angela Pan.

Angela lives in Washington, D.C. and many of her best photographs are of the memorials and monuments in that city.

Her work honors those who have sacrificed their lives for our freedom

May we never forget those who made the ultimate sacrifice and also to those who have served our nation beginning with the American Revolutionary War.

The 25,000 who perished in that initial war for freedom could not have known all that was to come as a result of their sacrifice.

They literally reshaped the arc of human history.

Those that followed have allowed the flame of freedom to continue burning bright.

As an added bonus, two of my children were in Washington, D.C. in the last several weeks and took a few photos on their visit I thought were worthy of inclusion on this day of remembrance.
