Remembering

Today is Remembrance Day in Canada - a day to think about and be thankful for those who fought and died in war. We commemorate by wearing red poppies in our lapels for a few weeks before this day.

We will remember.

    I like Remembrance Day. We lived in England for several years and seeing the poppies on lapels makes the day more real than our Veterans Day.
