August 19th Truck of Honour


On our way back to Bev's we saw this "Truck of Honour" and stopped for pictures. This truck travels all over the U.S.A. to participate in parades. It is a memorial to all who were killed in 9/11 as well as the veterans in the wars. I found it very moving. I choose two pictures for today. The first one is a view of the whole truck (as much as I could get in).

This picture makes me feel like I'm right in the painting.

It was a busy day. We went with Bev and her sister and grandchildren to a huge outfitters store. When Shazza was went to this store she called it the "dead zoo". It is full of stuffed animals and great to see. I have about 200 pictures to scrapbook of this day only.
