Another week has passed, and I have driven from Lake Superior to Lake Wascana to Lake of the Woods! We packed up on Sunday to drive our troubled car to Regina. After stopping in Kenora overnight, Wendy decided to stay there, and sent me on to Regina alone on Monday. The car barely started after refuelling in Winnipeg, so I didn't dare stop it until I got to Regina. Tim set me up with his mechanic and after some hours of testing, he determined it was the battery that was failing. Canadian Tire (reluctantly) replaced it (It was 1.5 years old, but they were sure the 9-year warranty shouldn't apply!), and we're running again. So, I packed up with Kristian on Tuesday afternoon and we headed back to Kenora where we've spent the rest of the week working on the markets and packing up the Baileys. The markets have continued to bounce with each successive headline, but I had a good week. The Riders had a bye this week; we hope they're learning that unlike hockey, you have to play four quarters to win in football!
Eric has completed his work in Kenora. Erica is working in Parksville, but yesterday she flew back to Winnipeg and this morning they drove back here. Erica will be attending to work here, along with three weddings and two UHauls! They have a renter for the Kenora house, so while not ideal, it's a relief all the same.
Erin started work on Wednesday! She is liking it, and finding the learning curve to be easier than expected. Kristian is travelling with us, and helping Liam unpack toys! Mark has accepted an offer on his Brandon house, so we hope that sale is completed successfully and soon.
Trav is taking care of business and the house back in Thunder Bay. He is enjoying getting the new office set up; there's a pic of some of it on his facebook page.
And that's about it for this week.
