Today, May 16, is Armed Forces Day!
"... For active-duty service members, members of the National Guard and Reserve and their families, Armed Forces Day offers public recognition of a commitment lived daily. It reflects the early mornings, long deployments, relocations, training cycles and quiet sacrifices that rarely make headlines but define military life. ..."

THANK YOU to all who serve!

There is a beautiful War Memorial right across the street from the Christie Home Museum. Be sure to check it out when you come for a tour!

On the third Saturday in May each year, Americans observe a moment that is both simple and meaningful: Armed Forces Day.

Happy Earth Day!
The first Earth Day was held April 22, 1970. So we know the Christie family had no idea planting trees would become a national obsession when they planted trees in the yard of their newly built home in 1902. The Christie family was always on the cutting edge of innovation!
