THE NEW CONFERENCE CENTRE
Home again, home again, jiggety jig, or something like that. We just spent the week in Vancouver and although it was fun we really like being home in our little old house on the water. We've pretty much given up on the whole moving thing and it might be a little sad but we decided we'd just do a few much needed renos here and stay put. The first being new windows and new wallpaper in the living room. Jim doesn't know about the wallpaper but considering it's falling off the walls it might just be about time (probably wasn't much of a selling feature). We're going to put the same Vera De windows in that we put in the kitchen and family room so it should look gorgeous. We also just ordered new carpeting for Danny & Jamie's old rooms. I can just hear them saying, "It's about BLOODY time!!" And then the stairs and railings (which are, apparently illegal). We can't have all the little grandchildren falling onto their pretty little heads. It's all rather exciting, not as exciting as tractors and goats and having Darcee and Chris next door but it's all good...Now there's going to be some photos (imagine that) and some aren't very good but it's all Kyle's fault (I sooooo love you Kyle). Anyway I digress, Kyle was looking at the internet (another surprise) and informed me Canon had a new SLR camera out. Now I have a beautiful camera but oh this new one!!! And the amazing thing is it's cheaper than my old one was plus I didn't need any lens just the body. I had no intentions of getting it but turns out the dental clinic needed a good camera, in fact I was just there taking pictures of some gentleman's teeth. So Jim and I are walking down the street and he pops into London Drugs and buys the new one for me and the office gets the old one. Very cool!! A win/win, other than the fact he might never see me again. It is so incredible Kyle, you would love it! The sensor cleaner is amazing !
So here are a few pictures from the first 24 hours. I love the one of Jim.
Such fun! Unfortunately the weather is absolutely terrible this weekend so I can't get out but hopefully the rains will quit soon and I can get out shooting. We had amazing winds yesterday and it's still blowing so we're heading down to see if the old boat is still floating. We've got some people interested in her so would kind of suck if it was on the bottom..Then it's cleanup time for the yard. What a mess, the wind and rain has flattened everything. It's all good though as the gardens hung in for the wedding and that's all that mattered.
