News Update

Another week of beautiful weather has passed on the shore of Lake Superior in my hometown. The snow is disappearing quickly, and it appears this will be the year we didn't have winter! If the lawn is showing, can the fairways be far behind?! The week started with a great celebration as we won Olympic gold in hockey, and ended with us skating on the Superior lake. With the low snowfall this winter, great expanses of the ice are clear, so we tried it out this morning. We found out it's still a lot of fun, but we're getting old! On the investments front it was a very good week as I picked up 0.9% to an accumulated total of 8.0%, so that helps me catch up a little. Then, this afternoon, curling coverage started again as the Brier is under way in Halifax, so that pretty well locks up the next week! Eric and the boys arrived this afternoon, and we're expecting Erica this evening, so we're glad to be having some time with them.

Wendy has now completed her teeth-cleaning sessions. She has more teeth; it takes longer! She even convinced me to go on a couple of her walks this week. It works for her, perhaps it'll help me. She keeps busy keeping up with Kristian most days. And she's started taking a reluctant Sadie (Erin's Shih Tzu/Bichon puppy) for short walks.

Erin keeps busy with work and Kristian—nothing changing with that.

Travis completed his hockey season this week as his team lost out in the play offs. Now he's hoping to catch up on his contracts and pick up more work.

And that's about it for this week.
