Crowsnest to Christina Lake; then Vancouver BC
September News!
Well, despite my good intentions, I have missed posting the whole month of September and almost all of October. Not good! This is not because we have been sitting still, or that nothing is happening in our life, but more that I have become an e-book reader and the computer has not been a high priority. I will try to remedy that situation.

September found us first at the 80th birthday of our dear Uncle Freddie in Strathmore, AB. What a fun weekend of celebration! Amazingly, Uncle Freddie had had surgery on August 24th and although tired from the affects of anesthetic, he was able to take part in and enjoy all the festivities. Aunt Doreen had arranged for the rental of their downstairs lounge and card room, complete with a full kitchen, so we nieces and nephews went to work! It was work, but fun at the same time! It was great to meet new friends and catch up with our Western cousins.
Here's the family minus Michael. Nadine and Daniel who had been at the birthday breakfast the day before this was taken. The festivities included Sat breakfast, Sat night dinner for out-of-town friends and Sunday dinner for family and friends complete with a community cake and ice-cream. Speeches and entertainment rounded out the night. My favourite part was U Fred, friend Gord playing duet on piano and friend, Ken on keyboard playing The Power of the Blood. WOW!
