Eclectic Tastes



Tomorrow is 'Remembrance Day' here in Canada.
I thought a local artist, Terry Kelly, (click to learn more about him)
would say it best through song and
why we celebrate the men and women
who fought for our democratic freedom.

As a side note.....I visited my father yesterday, 
who resides in Camp Hill Veterans Hospital,
and saw that there was a 'commemorative program'
planned for Monday.

I asked him if he was planning to attend.
His reply was that he 'can't go to those things'.
And come to think of it, 
he has never liked to talk about his 'war experiences'.

He spent three years in London, England 
when it was being bombed almost daily.

I can appreciate his silence.
