It's windy and blustery out in my neck of the woods. And many Remembrance Day ceremonies have been moved indoors. Perhaps the weather is rather fitting given the occasion. Good to remember the sacrifices of those who came before me. I can't even imagine the hardships and horrors they lived through.

Recently caught the opening sequence of Saving Private Ryan--akin to getting punched in the belly. In the building where I work, there's a display of nurses from the local area who served overseas during the war. There are mementos such as uniforms, medical equipment and lots of pictures. Just ordinary people . . . in extraordinary times.

Hope you have a chance to stop and remember.
