STILL CRAPPY WEATHER

It didn't rain much yesterday but it was cool with a high of 9C. Wed. night dropped down to 5C.

We were invited over to Ron and Janet's for a 9:30 coffee in the morning just to socialise, since everyone has been cooped up for awhile. It just happened their neighbours John and Catherine just arrived form Buckhorn Lake, Ontario so they joined us.

We decided to bicycle over to the Rec. Hall for lunch and had a burger and fries for $5.00 each.

Everyone was tried of staying inside so they all dressed for the cooler weather and had neighbourhood group meeting on the street. There are now 3 remote control cars terrorising our street with a fourth on back order. This entertained a few of us for some time. It seamed like it was a demolition derby for awhile with Gene and his new truck running into the other two guys and every tree on the street.

After dinner we went over to Dale and Linda's to watch the Oregon/Kansas football game that Cathy wagered a bet on with Dale for a dollar. Cathy had managed to get a Duck bill quacker that fits over your mouth and when blown in makes a duck sound. So each time during the game when The Oregon Ducks scored she blew this quacker. It made everyone laugh, even Dale. The game ended with the Ducks winning and Dale paying off is bet. It was a great time.

Sorry, I can't uplaod any pictures for some reason. Will try tomorrow.


Til tomorrow.....
