P365 - 2017 - Day 146 - struck by the scene

I spent some time after work finishing up bulletin boards and a few other things I wanted to get done before the long weekend.  I was worried about the traffic heading north on the island to get home and was running through my head everything that I needed to do over the weekend....until I was struck by the scene in front of me.  Even with the island filling up around me, as I turned to look at the school and the flags that the students had placed outside today, there was a stillness to the air and the only sound I heard was the flapping of the flags in the breeze.  I breathed in the salt air and took a deep breath and said a silent thank you.  Happy Memorial Day weekend.
