Not much labour this day!

What a great day today was - we visited Dad this morning, went to the Royal Oak and then said good bye to Tanya and her kids as they prepared to return to St. Lucia for the start of school. All in all, a great Labour Day weekend.

What - Carleton Place again?!

Yup, we were back there again today - this time to celebrate the occasion of Ivor's 70th birthday and what a celebration it was! Happy Birthday Ivor and thanks for a great party!

Susan's in town!

Forty-five years of friendship

Last night we got together with friends to celebrate the life of Eric McFee, who passed away on August 1st. Eric, Dave, Doug and Gavin have been friends since 1963 - Eric will always be remembered as a good friend and will be missed by his many friends, band mates and family.

Flower Power...

The day ended as pefectly as it started...

Doug finally had a moment to relax with friends and celebrate his birthday!

Here's to longevity and special friends...

Our neighbours, Sheila and Stewart, got our day off to a wonderful start after what has been an exhausting week. Thanks so much - we really appreciated your thoughtfulness.

A fond farewell

Allan Edward Jacques
