November 11th, 11th hour.


Poppies row on row....


Today I am posting a picture of some of the poppy installation done in honor of the English killed in WWI. They are beautiful. I wonder what will happen to them afterwards? Maybe sell them for charity? I would dearly love to purchase one in honor of my father who served in WWII. Frankly I would love to have a vase full of them. I have a lovely white ceramic vase stored in the attic that I would love to fill with the poppies. Dr. Rawlinson, our family doctor back home, would often be heard reciting In Flanders Field where poppies grow, between the crosses row on row. He also liked Gilbert and Sullivan.
