SUNSHINE


Thank you for the cards.  Shandel and Cam your card arrived today,
I love the words “When you look at your life, the greatest happinesses are family happinesses.”


I was very touched by the comments in all your cards.  Thank you.  I feel really blessed to have such caring and loving children and grandchildren.


The morning was cool but took a short walk to see the ducks swimming so happily.


Then dad and I drove into Carol’s new place to have a visit before going to the Peace Garden.  A very good idea.  The sun had come out and it was a perfect day.

Then on to the Peace Garden, all around us we could hear the birds singing in harmony.

A garden that one man has created with a little help that is full of jade rocks and amazing flowers and all kinds of trees.

 Also he uses creative furnishings.  Carol has been spending time there for years and we always find it a delightful place to be; definitely serene and peaceful.
Then on to Centennial BeachDSCN0182
Dad and Carol enjoyed fish and chips as we remembered all the good family times we have had their.
Here it was the crows who came to visit us and steal a chip or two.

Came home to find out we had missed a visit from you Sandra. 

Sunday. we may go to Ben's soccer game in Langley.

So glad our card made it to you. I thought it was perfect when i read the front of it. and it is very true. Beautiful photos. Where is the Peace Garden? it sounds and looks like something i would like. I would like to go and visit the Devonian Botanical Gardens. And when Sandra is down for a visit sometime we must take her there. it is wonderful.
have a lovely weekend.

Carol's place looks very nice, nice big windows. Found our my reading glasses are much too weak and I need driving glasses now too. When was the last time either of you had your eyes checked? Sandra
