 A bit of history on the founding of Canada -

Founded on Psalm 72.8
" He shall have dominion also from sea to sea,
and from the river unto the ends of the earth."  

the Dominion of Canada was formed to unite the provinces into a nation on
July 1st 1867.

Canada's motto is "He shall have dominion from sea to sea"
referring to God from the Psalm 72 scripture,
repeated again in Latin on the Canadian coat of arms, "From sea to sea".

Sir John A. MacDonald, Canada's first Prime Minister,
wrote an explanation of the name to Queen Victoria, stating it ,
" a tribute to the principles they earnestly desired to uphold."

Declaring the continued dominion of Canada from sea to sea   

as Canadians everywhere participate in celebrating this beautiful nation
founded on God's freedom.

Friday Fives on SUMMER! 6/29

Friday Five: What I Really, Really Like...

About Summer(Winter)

 {Not where I live}

From Rev Gals, here's this week's Friday Five ~

We have members all over the globe, 

so while I stepped out this morning and thought, 

"oh, my, Summer's really here and it's just the end of June...ugh...hot, hot, hot" - 

some of our folks are deep into Winter and thinking the same thing. 
Except about cold/rainy/whatever it is weather.

So, for a better attitude (for me anyway) and maybe a boost for you too...

What are five things that you 

REALLY REALLY REALLY 

like about the current season where you live?  

and, for a bonus:

Something you are looking forward to about another season?

SUMMER for me!

and oh, am I loving it ~

1~ Warmth!

2~ Sunshine in vast doses!

3~ Easy access to everything everywhere!

No need for boots, mitts, scarves, parkas, scrapers for icy windshields,

 time to warm up the car's interior and engine before heading off anywhere!

4~ Flowers & Greenery wherever I look ~

BEAUTY of Colour & Fragrance!

5~ Living Large !

Living in the largeness of the Outdoor Life !

eating outdoors, sitting outdoors, reading outdoors ~

getting past the four indoor walls!

All the exclamation points are definitely emphasizing my appreciation

for the season I adore!

For all who live in this year round,

may you truly value what you have!

and

For this Special Summer Weekend
I am Grateful to be Celebrating Canada's 145th Birthday
July 1st !!

Be sure to come on back on the 1st day of July for your
Free pc Calendar Wallpapers ~

Join us for more Friday 5's Special Season!
