For 98 years, Americans have remembered those who served our country in uniform on 11 November – first as Armistice Day, and then, since 1954, as Veterans Day.
Here are some pictures of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall that I visited on the bike today, though I couldn't get close enough for a picture of the bike and the monument together.

| There were quite a few of these strange things with too many wheels (except for the nearest one, that is). |
Actually, this is a display of the half-size version of the Wall that has been touring the country for over thirty years. It is at the Blue Ridge Electric Coop garage on SC-123 just west of the intersection with SC-11. It will be there though November 13, 2017.
Tell a Vet today -- and every day -- that you appreciate the sacrifices they made for our freedom.
