I had just finished the lawn and Marilyn and I were sitting in our newly mown paradise enjoying a cool one. I’m thinking I have to share this picture. It’s a gorgeous sunny afternoon and considering the number of people around it’s still really quiet here in the park. All is certainly right with the…

Just a Tip
Just a little tip that may save you some embarrassment. When you are checking out the new tablets at Best Buy maybe don’t use your very own email address and your very own password to see how the email package works. It’s fast, no doubt about that, but a little tricky when you try to…
We’ve been hacked
If you too got an offer for a bunch of meds at an “almost free” price today, I apologize. I have changed my password, it shouldn’t happen again. Did you know that the experts reccomend you change all your passwords every three months? Before I do that I’ll need to find an expert to show…
Dee-Lish-Us
Last weekend Mar and I had a date. Perhaps I need to be a tad more specific: Marilyn and I had a date with our 2 year old grandson Aiden. He arrived at 50 Point Sunday about noon for a baby sit/sleepover while his mom and dad went out for the night. It’s been a…
Another Talented Vanstone
Guess what, she’s another talented Vanstone. Elizabeth may not be a Vanstone by birth but we got her fair and square in an off season trade a few years ago.In April of 2007 she officially became one of us. She has always been a talented dancer but lately she has been working hard learning the…

City Of Waterfalls
We have now lived in the Hamilton area, the “City of Waterfalls” for 10 years. I’m embarrassed to say we have seen maybe three or four of 126 of them. We travel 10’s of thousands of miles, all over North America to seek natural attractions of interest, but can’t do 20 miles to see some of the…
New Shoes
Last week came the good news that I was 12 months cancer free and we were very happy. Then we note that the cancer may be gone but in its place we have grown bellies. So, we have the chat: We should ixNay the ellybay (we talk in pig latin so we don’t alarm the dogs)….
Hill Billy Bird Feeder
We came home from a weekend in Toronto Sunday afternoon and look what was sitting on our step awaiting our arrival. We’re not sure who gave us this amazing gift, although we have our suspicions, and we did get the connection. Last weekend when I dumped our black water tank our sewer backed up (that’s not…
