The War of 1812 "Mercental" and A Regency "Austen-tagious" Gathering (Toronto Ont, Oct)

    
 We recently attended another 1812 Regency era event. It is always great fun to whiz back in time and learn more about history.

 

           Re-enacting is a great family activity..
                           (visit Ruth's Blog: http://niagara1812.blogspot.com/ )

A Golden Chain

by Helen Steiner Rice

Friendship is a Golden Chain,
The links are friends so dear,
And like a rare and precious jewel
It's treasured more each year...

It's clasped together firmly
With a love that's deep and true,
And it's rich with happy memories
and fond recollections, too...

Time can't destroy its beauty
For, as long as memory lives,
Years can't erase the pleasure
That the joy of friendship gives...

For friendship is a priceless gift
That can't be bought or sold,
But to have an understanding friend
Is worth far more than gold...

And the Golden Chain of Friendship

Is a strong and blessed tie

Binding kindred hearts together

As the years go passing by.
