I devoted mine for Weekend Reflections to my to my daddy who was in France. It distresses me so that people no longer talk of this war but all of the wars after it. That war changed my daddy’s like forever and in turn my life was changed. Going to Ypres and seeing the fields and the cemeteries with all of the fallen is a picture I will never be able to get out of my mind. My week over there will be with me til I die. geniegeniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17475608100401444065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8811197833423548455.post-37402376382624688072011-11-13T14:59:19.770+01:002011-11-13T14:59:19.770+01:00Excellent, Wil!
