Did you see that?



It's been a while since I've blogged. I've been busy. I know...I know
Excuses excuses. But it's true. 

I've always loved the water so I took lessons and began kayaking.  
Me with friends, Kathy and Sue.
 

We decided to move. Well, we made that decision a while ago. 
Looking for a new home meant a lot of road trips and a ton of picnic lunches.
This little gem was a perfect spot.

It took a lot of searching but found a lot we love. We listed and sold our home. Great job, Pat. 
Now, twenty years of love is getting packed into boxes.  

Apparently, having a new home built is hard work

I hadn't been in a canoe in more years than I can think about. 
The wind made kayaking a bit challenging so I jumped at the opportunity to go out with this group. 

Hubby and I were in St. Mary's for the taping of the Canadian series Murdock Mysteries.
I thought they might use Molly as an extra, but they didn't ask. Silly producer.
"Quiet on the set!"

We hadn't been to the horse races in a while. 
So hubby and I had a date night with friends at Georgian Downs

My sister gave me two tickets to a Blue Jays Game.
I wasn't about to pass up on a girls day out.  Besides, it was my first live game of the season. 
We must have brought them some luck
The Jays won and the crowd went wild. 

A little piece of Canadian history. 
Gander Newfoundland opened their community to airline passengers during 911.
It's the Canadian thing to do. 
If you haven't been, get tickets. "Come From Away" is fantastic. 
You will laugh and you may shed a tear or two.



















 I read that Terry O'Reilly, a renowned marketing expert was speaking locally. I've always wanted to hear him, so we got tickets. A small venue, we got fantastic seats. What a speaker. His passion comes through in his tone. 
His wife, my good friend Debbie keeps him organized. You know what they say. Behind every successful man...


I've recently taken up Stand-Up-Paddling. But I haven't got a picture of that. 
I haven't fallen in, touch wood, but my camera doesn't come on the water with me, just in case. 

No wonder I haven't finished packing yet.  There aren't enough hours in the day. Time is ticking on.
