Rolling Out The Red (and white) Carpet

Flags lined the street today leading to Amherst Regional High School to welcome our Prime Minister Stephen Harper to town.Even though Amherst was home to four of Canada's Fathers of Confederation, The Amherst Daily News tells us this is the first visit by a sitting Prime Minister since Diefenbaker, which would be late 50's/early 60's.So much excitement in our town this week!

  1. Very interesting. I like the flags Amherst deserve to have its spirit lightened after the fire on the week-end.

  2. Love those flags, it's good to see them flying - as Joan said, Amherst needs a pick-me-up this week.
