Another book

 to be returned to its owner.  A fabulous read …. again.   I won’t be reading another autobiography again.  There won’t be another great read like this one.



Th done great thing about this book is what I learned about the people that live here and call it home.  From the kids at Peterborough Collegiate and Vocational School

To the Peace Tower in Ottawa 

I learned a lot.

What does it mean to be a Canadian?  I’m like Rick Mercer — I really don’t know, but I’m proud as heck to be one. 

I remember when Karl wrote home to his parents he was getting married.  His dad wrote back “to an American?”  I cleared that up very quickly.  I do get annoyed with people in this country for not being grateful they live here.  They could live in parts of Africa that are worse than poor.  One of the reasons Rick joined forces for Spread the Net…….no sorry you have to read the book.

From Calgary (with Jann Arden) ….. why a bear?  I could say because I could but you have to read the book and yes I’ve been to Calgary.

to Algonquin Park, this land offers everything.
Read, enjoy and be proud that you are Canadian

And that is Grand Lake in Algonquin .. yes I’ve been there too, on a cold winter day many years ago

Motivational Monday

 These baby quilts are being donated to Healthy Babies, Healthy Children.  An organization here in my county that helps Moms with their babies.  I made them up last year and I’ll drop them off next month to the guild I used to be a member of.

The only stipulation is……do not cover my label!  My granddaughter worked hard to make them 







I'm taking a week away.  It’s a short week because today is a holiday.  Family Day in Ontario, Louis Riel day in Manitoba, Islander Day in PEI and Nova Scotia Heritage Day—guess where?


Have a great week.  I'll be back.
