Lest we forget

The Stones of Sacrifice
This cross of forty stones points to the summit of Memorial Mountain. The mountain was so named to remember the thirty-nine Armstrong and Spallumcheen men who sacrificed their lives for Canada during the Second World War. The central stone represents the Unknown Soldier.

In 1999, 2000 and 2001 students from Pleasant Valley Secondary School collected stones from the eight countries in which the men died: Belgium, Canada, France, Germany, Holland, India, Italy, and the United Kingdom.

Armstrong has a Village Cheese that's suppose to be pretty good... I think I got a little confused over it.

Frosty Mornings

I guess autumn is finally setting in with a thick layer of frost forming on the car in the mornings... It's almost discouraging enough to make me want to walk to work instead ;)

Outside

So I'm swamped with patient write-ups on a daily basis and so I'm pretty much locked up in my room... Almost everyday, when the sun sets, I get this urge to leave it all and run out of my little prison...
