Hi Denise! :) We had older friends who moved from Nova Scotia to care for his Mother in Law, and always regretted leaving. He told stories of WWII and inviting US servicemen for dinner and how the brought scarce items, like butter and sugar. When his Wife Elsie died, he returned to scatter her ashes. He spoke of the Angus L. Macdonald Bridge , and could remember the cistern he built that still held water. :)

Thanks for the story Me;) Lovely photo too:) There were those books about a gal that grew up in Nova Scotia, wait, just read, it was Prince Edward Island the books were written about, Anne of Green Gables. Anyway, it was still Nova Scotia I wanted to see, but I would settle for Prince Edward Isle as well;)

ty again, denise
 
If I write what I've really wanted to write since I first saw this thread a while ago, I'd get into trouble, but I might have to take another trip back over to our local country saloon dance club. Yea ha. I think it's time to retire the pc for a few hours and get back to reading my book, my brain is taking a wrong turn.
 
Before I die I want to.....

go to the World Cup and watch Scotland win it! (more chance of winning the lottery!)

Do a motorcycle trip around New Zealand.

Thanks for sharing your story, John. Sorry, but I have no specific advice that I can pass on to you. I know of Wounded Warriors, slightly, but hear that they are top-heavy with paid staff, and not all funds reach the intended. Thank you for your service John, and Good luck in your search. I am sure others here can be of help to you. - Jim

I'm glad your plans are working out for a June visit. There are people who care, and hopefully the system will change for the better. Hang in there John!:)
