Your touching into my heart with this. Not on...Lori<br />Your touching into my heart with this. Not only did the Metis vets serve, my dad lost both his legs in WW11 at 21 yrs. old.<br />I didn't know that the dance team was called Amboise. My mom's side, this you will be interested in, were called D'Amboise from France many moons ago. When they came to Canada, they dropped the D' and called themselves Amboise. Years later they realized someone had taken the D' away and started writing it back into their name. There is a castle in France called Amboise. I will visit it some day soon.<br />Gotta go and get more painting done.<br />Thanks for this post<br />Love Claudie<br />xoxoxoclaudiehttp://claudie.frid.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259236724941582496.post-64510952613597370402009-11-06T12:20:23.743-08:002009-11-06T12:20:23.743-08:00Wonderful!
