Remembrance Day 2020


 We must never forget.  I happened upon a Rick Steve's program on 'Fascism' on PBS TV recently and it revisited the horrors of World War II.  Many of us were not yet born and let's hope these times will never be repeated.  It is a real fear as history tends to repeat itself.

So lovely! Yes, we need to remember. I live in a military town and over the weekend many older couples were getting flowers and flags ready. We always have a parade, but not this year.

Beautiful! Definitely a day of rememberance. Although, its very chilly today to go out. We certainly have to find new ways to remember our past.

So glad you posted this. I will confess I am used to this holiday being on a Monday. But this is the day. And even now we need to remember those serving our country.

beautiful flower - i like the simplicity of it ...
My dad was in the Navy stationed in the Aleutian islands. He received Morse Code messages that he would translate and it was through this that he shockingly received news of his brothers's death who was in the Air Force at the time and crashed.
