Of course, that meant little opportunity to take any kind of a picture. So, I&#8217;ve pulled up a picture from several years ago to go along with the Memorial Day theme. On several business trips to Belgium between 2004 and 2008 I toured most of the World War One battlefields and visited several cemeteries, including the American Cemetery in Warengem. After those trips I put up some pictures from those visits <a title=\"Ieper pictures link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rnsmith.com\/wp-content\/pics\/code\/show_detail.php?q_string=72\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>, <a title=\"WW1 Pictures link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rnsmith.com\/wp-content\/pics\/code\/show_detail.php?q_string=70\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>, <a title=\"WW One Cemeteries\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rnsmith.com\/wp-content\/pics\/code\/show_detail.php?q_string=69\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>, and <a title=\"American Cemetery pictures\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rnsmith.com\/wp-content\/pics\/code\/show_detail.php?q_string=67\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Today was the first day of a new month &#8230; where one who wants to have good luck would say &#8220;<a title=\"Wikipedia link to rabbit rabbit\" href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Rabbit_rabbit\" target=\"_blank\">Rabbit Rabbit!<\/a>&#8221; As luck would have it, I completely forgot about it being the first day of a new month.

However, if the past is any indication, the month will be over before I realize it.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m working on a website project for my new client. It&#8217;s not easy working through someone else&#8217;s programming to figure out what they were really trying to do.
