Boy, did I get lost today!

Yes, I got lost big time in Seal Bay park. Headed out with Havoc to do our usual hour and decided to take a different route, let Havoc lead, big mistake, I told him we shouldn't go down this hill, well we did and ended up on a paved road, no idea where I am, been gone just about an hour already.....wave down a car and ask directions, go to end of this road and turn right and then when you get to the 'Y' keep right....the next person I ask is "how much further", "2 more straight stretches and then around the corner" (very polite teenager)....poor Havoc, had to keep drag him on leash because we were on a 80 km speed limit road, but we finally arrived at the gate to Seal Bay park and closer to home....1 hr. and 50 min. later we arrive...Art actually did miss me but he had his phone off so I couldn't have called to be rescued...I must admit that the only part of my body that hurts are the cheeks of my ass, must be from walking so fast and breaking into a jog every once in awhile hoping I would arrive home sooner....how will I ever convince Havoc to go with me again, I can always tell him I see a squirrel...haha....Marianne, you are lucky you were not with me this time.

Golfing with the girls in Arrowsmith.

Me, Adrienne, Willie, Dale, Pat. Loretta, Marj (Mustang convertible winner), Jill and Sue....fantastic day of golf and we all broke 100, some better than others...did I mention there are only 5 par 4s in 18 holes? Ha ha... The sun shone, the wind blew to keep us cool and it was a wonderful fun day.

Our darling Sierra!


Isn't she a cutie, 2 1/2 months old and it will be another 2 1/2 months before we see her in person...have the hardly waits....she looks so squeezable and huggable....did you know there is no such word as huggable?

Royanne and Simmah and their new home (Paris)!


Royanne and Simmah will be moving into their new home on Sept. 28th to Fort Victoria. We will also be staying there for 10 days before leaving the island on Oct. 8th for Texas. Art has to help set up and teach her all about RV living. The unit has 4 slides, fireplace and w/d hookup, computer desk, a few of the extras.

I'm AOK!

Had check up with cardiologist in Victoria yesterday and my pig valve should be good for another 12 years, but I did find out something a little shocking....took Art with me as two heads are better than one, don't know about these two old heads, haha.....anyway, when I had the valve replaced they kind of got the measurement wrong, so, I have a smaller valve than my original, but not to worry, everything is working fine....whew....and the difference is very small....just keep doing what I have been doing, enjoying life!
