Duolingo

We commemorate Remembrance Day today, lest we forget.

It is time to put snow tires on our cars.  The snow can come at any time now, in fact it did snow a bit yesterday and we had an extreme cold alert which was luckily lifted by the afternoon.

I met an old acquaintance last week and she was telling me she tried to learn Spanish using Duolingo which is a free language learning website and app.  She and her husband were taking a vacation in Panama and she actually tried using what she had learned.  This didn't really work for her but she tried!

It's important not to forget what happened in the 2 wars and those who gave their lives for their countries! Hugs, Valerie

Remembering what happened from before is always important, never repeating!

We never have to do that here, though when the snow comes everyone freaks out

That's the thing with winter weather: it can arrive at any moment!

No snow here yet, but bitterly cold especially compared to last weekend when we still had balmy temps.

Christine, we got the winter tires on just in time, it's in the -20's currently and I'm pouting. ;)

That's funny! I tried learning Spanish, as I'm going to the Dominican Republic, babbel didn't work well for this.

I have the DuoLingo app, but somewhere along the line got out of the habit of using it. Will probably need to start back at the first level, but hopefully what I learned comes back easily!
