Weekend Weathervanes: Soldier Taking a Knee

Now I know what to do with those photos – “thanks” to Heather Wilkinson Rojo at Nutfield Genealogy; she blogs Weekly Wednesday Weathervanes  in New Hampshire.  Please check out her page and enjoy the many unusual weathervane photos and be entertained with a history lesson. It’s amazing at what you can encounter in your travels – You Just Need To Look Up!

Weekend Weathervanes

Soldier Taking a Knee

While stopping for coffee in Newtown, CT. this weathervane caught my eye… coffee had to wait, as I quickly exited the car for photos! This one was perfect to save for a special day, and I’ve chosen Dec. 7th, 2018… a day we think back on all our men and women who lost their life at Pearl Harbor! More than 2,300 Americans lost their life that day, while many more were injured…  we will never forget! President Franklin Roosevelt called December 7, 1941 “a date which will live in infamy.“

While this solder takes a Knee above the now Bank of America… I am curious if they placed it there or a previous tenant. I’ve been in this plaza before and it never caught my eye. Sometimes it’s all about the clouds that makes the weathervanes stand out!

It couldn’t have been a better day for photographs!

One of my favorite finds!
