Summer ????
Well we had a week of sun and warmth, but it looks like it is destined to end at least for a while. Of course it would, as it is our famous Victoria day parade on Monday. 150 entries, with 16 American marching bands. Our Lions club is again Marshaling it, so hopefully the rain takes a break for Monday morning.
Mom is recovering nicely. She had a large blister on her calf, that, with her compromised immune system and diabetes, could have been worse. It wasn't infected but she has been on oral anti-biotics for two weeks now. It had really affected her, but she is in much better spirits lately. We even had a game of cribbage today, and her humour is back. She got lots of Mother's day flowers, cards and attention, which helped a lot.
We are heading for Vancouver this weekend for Chelsea's graduation at UBC. So happy for her. She is graduating in a double major, gender studies and cultural anthropology. Noni is beside herself she is so proud, as are we. Chelsea was able to get enough tickets so we can all attend the ceremonies. On the heels of that will be Rachel graduating as an RN in June, and likewise Lyn is bursting too.
Early June will find us attending a VP407 squadron reunion. We will spend a week to attend and then visit with Noni and friends. Might just be the last trip in the MH.
That's it for what is becoming a monthly update.
Ciao & Peace
