On this Veteran's Day, I had a meeting at noon in downtown Frederick, and since the weather was beautiful and mild, I decided to walk all over on this Sunday morning. My 90 minute walk took me by a lot of shops, row houses, historic buildings and homes, and public parks.
One park, Memorial Park, was set up with chairs and a podium for the Veteran's Day celebration that was happening later in the afternoon. Memorial Park in Frederick is the only park in Maryland to have a monument for every war that our country has fought.
Thank you to all veterans who have served and to those who are serving today. You are the true heroes of our country.
Enjoy my photos today. The captions tell their stories.

| For you, my daughter Lauren. Thank you for your service. |

| Even Frederick's famous iron dogs have strong opinions. |

| Upon reflection, is this all reflections? |

| Another of the mile markers! This one has a spike on top to keep people from sitting on it. |
