At this moment in time....

I spent the middle of today baking in the sun on Parliament Hill, while listenting to some pretty heavy shit.

Today was the Canadian Police Memorial in Ottawa, and was the premise for the band's trip there.

I have to say that I think my allergies were acting up a bit when I heard about people my age, and younger, dying in the line of duty. Officers leaving behind 5 and 7 year old kids... even a 9 month old in one case. Hearing about the lives of 11 people I had never met who died serving their country and communities is pretty moving stuff.

Kinda puts things into perspective.
