  1. I'm a few days late for Canada Day (July 1st), but I'd like to try the challenge. Lots of those words would work for Canada's history, too.

    Thanks for the suggestion.

  4. I was proud of our community, not one pop or bang as they were prohibited because of our fires, but I was sure I would hear something--nothing. Now the rains have come, a little late. But a Happy 4th, (a little late).
