These pictures are taken at Arlington Cemetery. All the graves of men and women that fought for freedom for our country! I am very thankful for their service!
The rock on top of the tomb stones is supposed to be a Jewish tradition in lieu of flowers. It is to let whomever comes to grave after know that it has been visited. I looked it up when I got home.
Blessings,
Kim
