No free ride this time!!

Southern Mini
I am certainly not as tired as I have been after one of these Teas for the church. More people to help ,more experience on my part, who knows- $800 from a bake table. who would have guessed. $200 from the Elephant !! it was good stuff this year even the suprize ladies had little left over, always that alure of the unknown. Now we are out for supper- good deal.

It's curled

Southern Mini She said that size will be an afro so I took her word for it went down one size and I still have plenty of curl. At least people comment on your hair when it goes from straight stringy to fuzz.
The weather should make my hair curly-- moist and moist.
The bandits won even though they gave the other team a 1-4 head start. The goalie stopped a penalty shot and several other good chances after he did his little wander and said-- here you want a goal.
Going for tea with the ladies today. This is the free ride - pay and be waited on.

Birthday in the mountains

Southern Mini
The scenery was fantastic and the air fresh and clean. The trees had lost there color except for a bright yellow dot here and there like someone was trying to clean out their paint brush by flicking it and the yellow paint was spattering amongst the green.
We climbed the everest practice hill and from there you can see the mountains and their glaciers to the west and glimpses of the lower lake thru the trees. The upper lake had some white caps way down there but we were in the calm at the top of the rock in the trees.
The wild life stayed away but so did the tourists. A man from Calgary said we finally have our Park back!! The sky was marvelous with its' mares' tails and blue,blue,blue. A great way to spend a birthday.

When to talk and when to stay silent
UCW meeting today. I vowed not to talk so much but I would never have made a nun. It seems like we are walking in glue but it is probably because I am not in control as much as in the past. I must let others dooooo! Heard that Shelia is trying to sell her house and move to Sask. That would be the loss of a great worker. Best go and watch the steak.

Curling

Thanks to a certain angel the blog is now unblogged or would that be unplugged? We curled this afternoon with what was described as a stacked team and were beaten I believe the final story would be 12 to3. Hmmmm!
I am writing a reaction to the Special Place essay after this effort. Hard to do!~

Thanksgiving

Just spent the Thanksgiving Day weekend at Dinosaur Prov. Park. The wind was cold at first but then the sun came out and the weather was fabulous. The Dinosaurs were in a good mood so no prowling at night. The coyotes were fiesty but off in the wide blue yonder. The moon was fantastic and the stars were out!!
The dinner was spare ribs and dim sum for supper with an apple strudel thrown in for good eating.
The bedclothes were frigid but they warmed nicely, and the new heater kept things warm in the evening and got them warm again in the morning.

I went into the garden this morning and pulled the tomatoes and made the garden compost heap larger. The plum tree has beautful red and green leaves as it slips into winter. The radio said it was snowing but there are some breaks in the clouds here.
