Day 182 - Canada Day

Today is Canada Day -- 147 years ago this nation arrived on the scene. The weather today is looking reasonable in most areas for some type of outdoor celebrations. In some places these have been scaled back due to the water issues, but some public events are underway across the country. My favourite is always the fireworks -- This is the one time of year when most communities I've lived in hold fireworks -- as long as the weather cooperates.

For the selection today, I'm sharing a song I sang as a child in grade school. This is an early recorded version that sounds similar to the WWI platters I have for an early record player. The photos are beautiful, too.  Enjoy!
