Patriotism (from Merriam-Webster) is defined as the act of loving one's country. And we do love this country!!
Patriotism was born in Boston, Massachusetts (we visited in 2009.)
Near the Bunker Hill Memorial
A Tribute To Samuel Adams
And up the steps at Harvard University.
Patriotism is certainly found in Washington DC (we visited in 2009)
The Lincoln Memorial
The Korean War Memorial (these statues are larger than life!)
The Women's Military Service Memorial
At the Library of Congress
Near George Washington's Mt. Vernon
The Capitol Building
And most definitely in Arlington National Cemetery.
Our nation found its meaning of patriotism again after the events of September 11th.
With the deepest sense of respect and patriotism...
Happy Memorial Day!
