Remembrance Day
This is the “Field of Crosses” in Calgary. It is set up every year to honour people who died in combat who were from southern Alberta. It is an amazing place to visit. Andrew Fleming was my uncle. He was a pilot in World War 2.

Hooray! A new blogging challenge!
Hello! I am excited to be a commenter for the blogging challenge! I was a teacher for a long time and loved blogging with my students. I am looking forward to seeing what you post on your blog and getting to know a bit about you.
I live close to Brooks, Alberta, Canada.
This is our view in the summer. We kayak on the lake. We love watching the birds – geese, pelicans, ducks, merganzers. We also get to see deer, foxes and coyotes.
This was our view last week. It was foggy and snowing. There’s not enough snow to snowshoe! We’ve had a pretty mild winter so far.
