Arequipa
Both Jean and I have managed to catch colds ... drats!!! Neither of us will stop though, just pass the kleenex and lets get on the bus or plane or whatever. Actually the flight to Arequipa is pleasant...
Gospel Choir Workshop coming to Saskatoon!
Featured Entry
When the two of us went to visit my sister & her husband for 5 weeks back early in 2009, she insisted we come to choir practice. They love their choir so they wanted to share that with us. Okay, so we tag along knowing of course that Lawrie has a nice voice, but mine isn't worth opening my mouth for, but humour my sister we will. Gospel choirs we have all seen and heard in any number of movies and it looks like they are having a good time, so maybe we will too.
Lima
A city of 8 million people ... way too big to really comprehend. Our flights here are uneventful though not particularily comfortable. We are met by Eduardo and wisked off to Villa Molina where we settle...
Finished Rogue Sweater
This sweater is wonderful ... I've worn it many times and feel super comfortable in it, think it looks pretty nice too! I'm now not surprised that there have been many knit-alongs for it.
The day before the big day
Most everything is done and I'm amazed that it is only one more sleep before Jean and I leave for Peru. How exciting. I've a busy day ahead but most of it is fun stuff. My dear friend Carol gave me an...
Too Busy
I suppose if a person is going to have this blog, one needs to write to it! Perhaps make it just one of those things one does in a day rather than when one thinks they have time. A bit like brushing ones...
Margie Gillis
BJ and I had a lovely visit on Thursday ... wandered around some of the galleries in town. BJ found a wonderful bracelet that was more of a work of art than jewelery. After supper we went to the Artist...
Visit from Vancouver
I got a call from BJ, my friend and former supervisor at the Yellowknife Public Library. She is coming to Whitehorse with her friend just so they can go to the Margie Gillis performance on Friday night...
Moose hunting
I think Lawrie should be writing this ... but he isn't! They didn't see any bull moose, so they didn't come home with any meat for the freezer. Now this is fine by me cause we don't really eat meat...
McQueston River
Saturday morning we were up early and did the final packing and organizing for moose hunting 2005. Lawrie is off to canoe this river in Yukon that is located north of Mayo and south of Dawson City. The...
Clean up and Composting
This is a very sad time in the garden. Plants start to die back, fragrant flowers aren't fragrant anymore, the bees quit visiting, birds vanish, flowers fade and fall off, leaves turn yellow and brown or...
The Da Vinci Code
Written by Dan Brown, this is a great read that will likely have you thinking about many things differently. Well, it certainly did me anyway! I was quite astounded to realize that I hadn't ever...
