Perfect, well except for the grass seed, that's for the Spring :)

Staining a porch, retired style


You may ask, what is retired style?...well, that's where u go and stain the porch in four hour intervals...with three or four or five days off in between lol...but as you can see, it does eventually get done, before the snow flies...next year, the back porch....can't rush these things u know.

I warned you...I was an addict





Yes, it would appear that Facebook has truly become an all consuming passion. I know I am not alone, there's even Facebook for mobile users. Thank God I never got into Tweeting. Mark Knoop ex member of EPS, was doing the Torch Relay for the Olympics and since it was crossing Canada, he decided that he would meet up with us somewhere in Atlantic Canada. We arranged to meet in St. John, a place I had never been to. I've been to St. Johns in Newfoundland but that is another story. We did the five hour drive down and spent a great couple of hours hanging out with Mark. Funny he hadn't seemed to have changed at all, but then neither have I :) He took a couple of pictures and sent them up to me so I have attached them here. The picture with Mark and I is in front of our now most favorite coffee shop in the entire world "Java Moose", we bought three pounds of Coca Moca there and man is that the best coffee ever? But I digress, for those who may have noticed that our address has changed, it actually hasn't. The Retired Members Guild finally updated our address from the temporary one (my mother in laws) to the address we have had all along in Petit-Rocher. Enjoy the pictures, send me a line if you happen to see this in your travels and if you need to find me, well, just look me up on Facebook :)

It's official, I'm an addict!

As if I didn't have enough things to occupy my time in retirement...oh wait I don't...I've discovered Facebook games. Much to the chagrin of most of my family and friends who don't play games on Facebook it's apparent that I'm hooked, between my RollerCoaster simulation and farming in Farmville, I'm tending a Zoo, running a mafioso family and roaming the streets at night as a vampire. Good thing Lynn hasn't noticed, she's too busy tending her own farm, aquarium and zoo :) Worse yet, Lynn went to Ottawa for a few days and I've had to tend not only my crops, my fish, fight my battles with the mafia and vampires, but I've also had to do hers as well. But the dogs are fed, the poop is picked up and I'm running a load of laundry as I type, so all is not lost. Tomorrow we're driving down to St. John to see my old partner Mark Knoop (now withVancouver), I'm looking forward to the drive and seeing him, it has been a looooong time, maybe he'll be fat...oh wait, he's travelling with the torch bearer for the Olympics, so I guess not. I just realized that sentence is almost as long as one of Sarah Palin's. Sheesh
