My apologies to the two Bills, I missed Halloween this year. The celebration of the monster marsh lies on. My 5 year old granddaughter and I sing a duet. She sings backup to my monster mash. Quite an act.

Sorry Bill; I was in hospital and read your comment back to me. I was surprised to see Doug did not carry on from there.

Time is affecting Remembrance Day. The numbers of attendants are increasing but the number of WW11 and Korea veterans has diminished. The old vets are being replaced by younger veterans, many in uniform wearing medals earned in Bosnia, Croatia, and Afghanistan. Today, my 10 year old grandson laid a wreath on behalf of War Amps. He is 62 years younger than me.

Lest We Forget: Good show to all the volunteer and the Legion members that brave the cold each year with the Poppy trays hanging on their chests tied by lanyards around their necks. .. .. My Dad has passed on now as has my Mum. Dad was a RCASC driver with many years out of Camp Shilo. My mum became a nurse by way of her WAC militia training in Halifax NS. They never missed a Remembrence Day Parade. They made sure I had Cadet training although I enlisted in RCAF as a career. My son served 7 years as a Air Cadet and aged out as a Warramt officer. He was very proud to command their honor guard among the rest of the Parade procession here locally every Nov.11.
My 'dad in law' served in RCAF during WW11 as a Wireless Air Gunner officer. The Kite (Halifax Bomber)was shot down coming back from a bomber raid over Germany and was able to bail out over Belgium. From there the underground army helped him back to the Allied Forces. He aquired a trick knee from squeezing himself thru the hatch on his way out of the kite. He still survives in very good health at age 92. That is my family. God love them. ....bump
