Remembrance Day in Canada.
I caught this video of the parade in my home city Cambridge (Galt).
A tremendous sense of community and a great turn out!

Re-enacting Memory: sort of ... that time in 2011 when my sisters and I traveled to Germany with our Mom.
It was her first time back since she left as a young girl.
Our cousins in Leipzig studied felt they had to take me to see the Monument to the Battle of the Nations.

Rather than a re-enacting memory, going to share a Remembrance Day Memory.
This photo posted in 2019 by 31 Canadian Brigade Group - 31e Groupe-Brigade Du Canada of the Royal Highland Fusiliers of Canada at the Kitchener cenotaph.
Out just in time for tomorrow's anniversary!

Re-enacting Memory: 2006, visiting Cardiff Castle in the old Welch Regiment Museum (pre Firing Line).
The director gave me use of his desk!

The Remembrance Day service I always attend.
The years when the Regiment is there make it extra special!
The Regiment will be in Cambridge at the Galt Cenotaph this year.
It will be forming up at the Galt Legion at 10:00 with the parade moving down Water Street at 10:30.
The service will begin at approximately 10:45

Time flies!
On this day in 2020 I did a livestream to our brand new YouTube channel as a technology test hoping we would be able to do our annual conference online during the pandemic.
We now have close to 300 videos on our channel!

First set of images were mine. The last two are from starforts.com
To access the fort today, you have to cross a golf course!
