Last night we went to the RCMP Musical Ride in Abbotsford. Ken's best friend is on the ride, and they have finally made it far enough west that we could see them perform in Abbotsford. It was a beautiful night, with a bit of a breeze for relief from the heat, and when the anthem was sung, it brough a tear to my eye! So this crazy phenonemon doesn't just happen at hockey games for me!
The ride is precise, well rehearsed, and great to see. A helluva tradition to check out, and makes you stand a little taller to recognize this as a Canadian thing that ties us together, from coast to coast with men and women from all over Canada participating. Nothing like a bit of nationalism!
