Day of the Saint
If you live in Québec and you believe that Québec is a nation unto itself, today is Fête nationale du Québec.
I was born in Québec and I also work there, but it's not my 'national' day. That one comes exactly one week from today, on July 1.
But I will say "Happy Saint-Jean-Baptiste Day!"
It's a statutory holiday so I don't have to work. That's great news; however, during these days of a global pandemic, what am I supposed to do? I can't really go anywhere, unless, possibly, I take my kayak for a solo paddle.
I suppose I can do some chores around the house. That'll make DW happy. Or, perhaps, I can do some writing or make a Beer O'Clock review for my Brown Knowser YouTube channel.
I could also take my camera and find a place to capture images.
For my Québec friends and family who celebrate on this day, profites de ton jour de repos et rester en sécurité et en bonne santé!
