Veterans Day is a opportunity not only to carve out some time from our lives who remember those who gave their own, but to celebrate all that we enjoy. Today is also Davonia’s birthday, my wife of 25 years. Nimrod happens to be one of her favorites.
In the United States, we call it “Veteran’s Day.” Countries throughout the world have different names and celebrate it in different ways. In England, they call it “Remembrance Day.” The playing of Nimrod, one of the movements of Edward Elgar’s Enigma Variations, is a tradition on this day.
