Hey, Neighbour/Neighbor! Celebrating Canada and the United States

Thursday was July 1st, better known on this side of the border as Canada Day. Our country is 'officially' 143 years old, although it has existed for many years before that. Despite my disdain for our current leadership, I do love my country and wish her a belated happy birthday.

And tomorrow is our neighbour's Fourth of July celebration. We're awfully glad to have neighbours like the USA, even if you do spell neighbors kinda funny. :-)

I hope all of my American friends, across their great nation, have a fabulous, safe holiday tomorrow! May the powers that be keep both our countries glorious and free.


Happy Canada Day/Happy 4th of July, everyone! I will be back to blogging regularly in a few more days...

  5. I really like that flag patch Jodi. Isn't it funny how a line drawn across a map can make things so different, like the way we spell neighbor, or a language.
