A beautiful sunny morning for our drive to Chilliwack not to see the soccer game as before but to the musical talent performance at the church near Ben and Morgan’s School.
It was a karaoke event and Ben was going to sing a Beatles’s song "Help". We got there in good time but missed the first singer, (spell checker went on strike.) She was the first prize winner but I think Ben was tops!
Ben and Theresa arrive,
He looks very confident in a nice way. And does well. A good round of applause. Yes he came in second and we were all very proud and happy for him. He won singing lessons as a prize and a karaoke machine
Kim made it just in time after taking Morgan from her soccer games, where she was goalie and got hit with the ball in the face, to a wild and crazy birthday party.
Dad and I went back to Theresa’s place where the girls made an excellent lunch. Good and healthy. We both enjoyed the day. Carol joined us and then Mikie came later. Carol has been working in Chilliwack on Fridays and Saturdays and fortunately can stay at Theresa and Mikie's.
We drove into the sun and the drive home was relaxed. Both tired out when we arrived home but so happy to see everyone even Haiti the dog, who was so excited to see us.
The time went so quickly. Too tired to read when I got home but like
Borges said "I cannot sleep unless I am surrounded by books". So I did have my pile of books!
We miss seeing the soccer but dad’s feet are just getting more painful so walking and standing is too painful.
Light rain on my walk; half as far and twice as slow but I did it.
Heavy rain later. Hope Sandra got her gardening done. Off to church after a short walk.

Wow - 2nd place! That's great!
I have to go to Saskatoon for a day next week.
Love,

Hey - I like this new Pope. He says the Catholic church spends too much time worrying about "little rules". At last! A Pope says something Jesus might have agreed with!
Rick
Totally agree about the pope.
Have a good trip and stay in Saskatoon.
love mom
Rick did you see the quote from BOOKS AND BOOKS? I put it on later.
Got some plants dug up, and then planted 3 of them in the rain this morning. Getting to the piddly stuff at the house, but still going back to the old place to paint today. Sandra. Oh, and congratulations to Ben!
