Memorial Day

Some good citizen has put up American flags to mark the dozen-or-so veterans' graves in the old African-American cemetery (West Marlborough AME Church) on Upland Road west of Ryan Road. These brave men fought in the Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) in the Civil War.
By the way, somebody along Upland Road has a peacock in residence. I could hear him shrieking while I was visiting the graveyard.
