    One tough Broad... This is an experimant... Alices mother wrote up a 28 page diary of her life

    It is a handwritten journal of her trials and tribulations...... And believe me, she had many. It makes for a fascinating story. I have edited out a few items [the dates of birthdays, weights, etc] and the writing is somewhat difficult to read at times [dial up has forced me to reduce the...

    Bicycle wreck!!! :):

    The pastor asked if anyone in the congregation would like to express praise for answered prayers. Judy Smith stood and walked to the podium. She said, "I have a praise. Two months ago, my husband, Tom, had a terrible bicycle wreck and his scrotum was completely crushed. The pain was...

    How do you measure a life!!

    Very sad news from my daughter last night. Her best friends husband [And I would say our adopted son... since we saw so much of this couple when we were in Victoria.. They would come up to the farm and she would ride horses and he would come to the shop and either talk to me or work on his...

    Time for my annual post.. with only one thing changed.. :):

    It was 41 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...

    Well. a couple of days back, I decided to go out looking for arrowheads...

    Wish that I could say that I found this little beauty. I did find one thumbscraper and a couple of broken points. Nope this lovely was found by Terryl. ... and when she found it [in the middle of the road, having been driven over by who knows how many people and only a couple of feet where I...

    Growing up without a cell phone!! :D:

    If you are 30, or older, you might think this is hilarious! When I was a kid, adults used to bore me to tears with their tedious diatribes about how hard things were. When they were growing up; what with walking twenty-five miles to school every morning.... Uphill... Barefoot... BOTH ways

    If you give the B.C. medical system an infinite amount of time, and the patient an infinite amount of patience, and the government an infinite amount of money [to pay for the Olympics :):] a patient can get an MRI... Going tomorrow for my [long awaited and long overdue] MRI in Kelowna. At...

    "fricking Evil"

    We just had Willy and Carol up for a weekend visit. It was a great time, much laughing, joking, reminiscences, and good times were had by all. It has been far too long since we have seen them

    Got a little beat up at the lake today..... but it was worth it.. :):

    One Loonie, one quarter, two pennies, a silver dime, a silver ring with a peridot and a gold ring. Water was cold.... but with the dry suit, it makes it acceptable [attachment 154403 kin-beach-march3-001.jpg] Fair winds Micheal

    It is cold up here in B.C.... But with a dry suit, things can go well

    Hit a lake in Vernon, B.C., yesterday. Donned the dry suit and gloves and headed out. I got the usual coinage and when this sounded, it had an almost overload signature to it... Probably a piece of a beer can or some such. Anyway, this beauty turned up. 36 diamonds [all real, but small] set...

    Ah... for the days when insults had class. :D:

    The exchange between Churchill and Lady Astor: She said, "If you were my husband, I'd give you poison," and he said, "If you were my wife, I'd take it." Gladstone, a member of Parliament, to Benjamin Disraeli: "Sir, you will either die on the gallows or of some unspeakable disease."...

    Like Fred, it was a nice casual afternoon... only I went out looking for arrowheads...

    I had done as much tiling as I could in the kitchen, so I took the afternoon off and went to Burton for a quick looksee. The lake is dropping rapidly and new areas are opening up pretty much daily. A liitle rain would help to clean off the surface mud on the beach.. but all in all it was a good...

    This years arrowheads.... and also, one unique [as in never seen before] item..

    While I have not managed to get out as much as I would like, I have snuck out the odd time ..... usually when I am going up to see Alice. I have been stopping at chip hill and I guess I am the first... this has been my best year for some time. [attachment 146369 arrowhwads-nov09-021.jpg]...
