Rememberance Day in Canada here....I feel on the edge of tears all day long....especially hearing the old talk of their memories and sorrows that never grow old.
I think of my grndfather who served in the Canadian army in WW1; First Division head machine gunner who survived a snipers bullet only because he leaned to relieve a cramped arm muscle and got the bullet otherwise directed for his heart.

He was in the first wave at Vimy Ridge and was gassed at Ypres and survived it all to live a good life on his farm he pioneered on the prairies of Saskatchewan and live to his late nineties.

God Bless and keep them all.....thank you, we remember always!
