July 4th at Antietam

OK things have been hectic recently so I’m going to take today to catch up a bit. I have some photos and info that I’ve been meaning to post for several weeks now so I apologize if the next few posts seem outdated (pictures from July 4th).
Last month for the 4th of July my sister convinced my parents to take us all to Antietam Battlefield for a concert and fireworks. The Maryland Symphony Orchestra performed patriotic songs under a large flag, then they launched fireworks.

They did a salute to those who have served in the armed forces. They played the songs for each branch of the military and asked those who have served to stand while their song played. Dad stood up for “Anchors Aweigh”. I tried to snap a picture from where I was sitting.

He looks a bit confused.
