Happy Canada Day!

We are 149 years old today, and the planning for a country wide blow out for 2017 has already begun! It's mostly cloudy and cool, so I am curled up on the loveseat stitching and watching documentaries. Tonight, gourmet burgers and then off to watch the fireworks.

Last night, I was too lazy to cook, so I ordered. The delivery person was a new Canadian, and wished me Many Happy Canada Day Salutations. :banana:

Happy Canada Day!  Wow, the Sesquicentennial next year.  I have wonderful memories of attending Expo 67 in Montreal, which was in celebration of the Centennial.  Of course, I was very young at the time.  ;-)

Barbara--

What fun!  I did recognize several of the images.  I definitely remember the German pavilion, which had some of the coolest model trains I have ever seen.  And what a catchy tune, although I can see why it might drive your parents crazy to hear it over and over.  :-)  Thank you for sharing that.
