A Beautiful Place out in the Country

A good friend and I had a nice time decorating Saint Margaret's Church for the Christmas season today.  It was one of those days when everything just "clicked," if you know what I mean.  Good times out in the country.

On my way home I decided to take the short detour off the main road to the Congregational Church at Gros Ventre-Tothill.  I hadn't seen it in a winter setting for a few years so it was a treat.  In my mind's eye it is simply a beautiful place out in the country.  Glad I took a few minutes out of my busy day for a visit.

Cenotaph Dedication

Today at 2:00 p.m. was the official dedication of the new cenotaph at Saint Margaret's Church and Cemetery. 

Approximately 35-40 people attended the unveiling on what turned out to be a gloriously warm and sunny day in the Cypress Hills.  Among those in attendance were war heroes, recent immigrants from Ukraine, a wine merchant, local folks, a bagpiper and a host of others.

Most importantly...thanks to everyone for remembering.

Veteran Park

A special treat for Remembrance Day...a walk through Veteran Park in Baldur, Manitoba.

The "old folks" in town keep the park looking beautiful.  God bless them.

In remembrance...God bless them all.

To Market, To Market...

"To market, to market, to buy a fat pig,

Home again, home again, jiggety-jig.

To market, to market, to buy a fat hog,

Home again, home again, jiggety-jog."
