Sunshine and Shadow On One of Israel's Saddest Days

I had intended to start this blog more than three months ago.

I'll explain why I'm so late another time.

Suffice to write that this Holocaust Remembrance Day morning is one of sunshine and shadow here in Karmiel, Israel's Galilee.

What's more, at precisely 10.00 a.m. - unlike customary Israeli time-keeping - the memorial siren sounded with plangent awfulness. What seemed like an eternity was no more than  three minutes. However, it was dreadful and made me tremble.

The rest -  today  - will be silence.
