Brunch at Smitty's



Neil Bailey and Darcy Folk flew in from Toronto (via Abottsford BC) on Friday and we met them at Smitty's for brunch on Saturday. It was good to visit with them and we look forward to seeing them again June 1 coming up.

U of Saskatchewan Spectrum show

Ruth and I went with Jennifer, Imogen and Yoyo to Spectrum and enjoyed many displays. Yoyo was able to suspend a metal disk in the air using an electrically charged wand. We went into the most expensive room at the U of S which was a specially suspended room that helps virtually eliminates echos with wedge-shaped baffles. Jennifer got to stand inside a soap bubble and Imogen and I got to pretend to drive some pretty hot racing cars. And Jennifer and Yoyo got to experiment with some green-coloured corn starch mixed with water. A fun time was had by all.

Mild January weather.

Glory and Yoyo learn how to play dominoes a favorite game in Jamaica. Ruth took Yoyo to Kiwanas Park and met two of the women from the hockey team with their gold medals when they were there as part of the Olympic Torch Relay.


Imogen really enjoys her new outfit from Yoyo, a student from Taiwan who is staying at Jennifer's.
And Imogen loves to be reminded of her trip to Europe where she got to ride on Grandpa's shoulders on many sightseeing trips.
