Born on the 1 st of July

............ its CANADA Day
# 149 since confederation

Oh , Canada

We only shoot what we intend to eat
( mostly )

I'm supposed to fly the flag 
Well , its not always what I think is going to happen

To wit , the first year that I got out the flag , I proudly put up the flag

The  first comment  ,  ' Hey ,where did you get the pole ? '
Come on !
the pole ????

It is a 20 ft - er and it came w/ the house up in the garage rafters , along w/ the 6 ft wings off of a paper and wood airplane

There is an official Canada 150 tulip , the tulip existed but only when the gardeners at the Parliament nurseries went looking , did they discover how much this one tulip looked like the flag.

BTW , Canada's history of tulips on Parliament hill goes back to 1945 , when a grateful Netherlands Gov't sent 100 000 tulips as a thank you to Canada for participation in the liberation of their Home.



Flag went up and is drowning
