Remembrance Day












I watched the ceremonies in our countrie's Capital, Ottawa, Ontario, this morning at the War Memorial. It was very interesting for me as we'd spent 2 weeks there this summer and I'd been to all the places. It was very moving, particularly now that we're involved in Afghanistan. The TV coverage showed all the men and women we'd lost since last Nov. 11. This day isn't honored that much here in the US but we drove past a school where there was a Healing Field. It was honoring all the fallen heroes from Iraq and Afghanistan with a flag and I heard there were 5000.
