The Annual Sisters' Visit

The sisters were here for their annual visit and it was a successful shopping trek to the town's thrift stores, consignment shops and malls in search of bargains. Instead of gifts for their August and September birthdays, I took them to a Rachelle van Zanten concert on Friday night at the gallery and a screening of the French film "Intouchables" at the Salmar Classic on Saturday night. Both were totally enjoyable.


For a change of pace we travelled to the Armstrong Farm market on Saturday morning, loading up with apples and pears. In our spare minutes, we allowed Tara to tromp us in games of Saskatchewan Rummy and UNO!!

Nick left on Friday afternoon to visit his son in Whistler so we peeled the plastic sheets off the deck each morning and recovered the deck each evening before sunset. He will be back tomorrow morning to apply the rubber layer. We still have our fingers crossed that the weather will hold until he finishes!
