Remember
In Canada, it’s Remembrance Day. Typically a very solemn day filled with tributes and remembrances of those who gave their lives in battle. This year it also happens to be 90 years since the Armistice ending the Great War, also known as World War I, was signed. On the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month, hostilities formally ceased between the two sides.
In the US, it’s Veterans Day, a much lower key day to remember and honour past veterans than its much more grandiose cousin, Memorial Day. Across the Lowcountry blogs, people are sharing their thanks for veterans.
Heidi says Thank you. So do Vera and Michael.
MojoSteve shares a poem, Soldier.
Denise at Uniquely Tea puts a tea perspective on her remembrance.
And here’s mine.
