This is a Veterans Memorial monument in Dunedin, FL. It is located at the Dunedin Marina. I could have posted a picture of a downtown street scene, or some clouds, or some kids playing, and felt the same respect and gratitude for the veterans that have served our country. Because it is all about freedom. The freedom for children to play without fear, the freedom to walk down the street enjoying a conversation with a friend, the freedom to just lie on your back in a public park and watch the clouds pass by over head. I enjoy the opportunity to live free, and to enjoy all these things and more. And I thank you, Veterans of America, who have secured this freedom for us through your sacrifice and dedication.

I enjoyed your commentary for your photo! Travelling to many other countries often makes me more appreciative of the life I lead, including all the freedoms you mentioned.
