The memories it brought back........ I was immediately in heaven. But we then...

    Once again, my annual post!! :):

    It was 42 years ago today, that the young couple walked, with trembling feet and uncertain hearts, down the aisle towards a future together. They were not sure of that future, [he had no job, nor any prospects at the time; she only did part time work gardening]. However, with love, and...

    I saw one of the best and coolest finds ever yesterday.

    I had to take some shop garbage up to the dump yesterday. Now for those not too familiar with us up here... we have a community of maybe 350 people and all of us are pretty conscious of our garbage output. Thus, the dump is only open one afternoon a week. So when you go there, it is to get rid...

    There is something very uniquely Canadian about a mist covered lake, early morning and the haunting sound of the loon...

    Royal... Do you remember that pretty young girl from the... I guess we will call it a.... disfunctional family, that you met while up here??

    Well, she came through that hell, beautiful and adjusted, and had her high school graduation yesterday.. We were up there, at her invitation, and watched it. A person would normally think that a grad is a grad is a grad... Not this one. After knowing what her life was at home, and how we helped...
