Spent a beautiful morning in the sunshine exploring the home that Matt lived in for 2 years as an 8 year old. Many stories of long hot summers!

Around the corner from Matt’s old house we found this burnt out shell. The upper floors completely destroyed with just the lower stone walls and the boiler left as evidence.

Beautiful, somber, thought provoking. Not only a tribute to many American service personnel but also to many events that happened around the world.

A huge memorial to Eisenhower. A commander and a president of great importance.
