Another absolutely beautiful day!! How many of these can one person take!!
Tomorrow is the Canadian equivalent to the American Superbowl. It is the 98th GREY CUP!!
To get ourselves into gear for it we had to watch the College Vanier Cup. Calgary was playing against Laval and Calgary was slaughtered by the East. Not a good omen!! The boys played in a typical snowstorm. It was snowing so hard that you couldn't see the yard lines!! At least the Grey Cup is being held in Edmonton this year and unlike last weeks game when the guys played in -25 windchill, the weather is supposed to be clear and a balmy -5C. WooHoo!! A heat wave!!
Tonight's campfire was lovely. I swear it was warmer tonight than last night.
Our entertainment tonight was provided once again courtesy of Mr Chipmunk and Hogan. Our poor little puppy will be exhausted by the time he goes to bed!!
A couple of Rhinos came by and one stalled on the trail by the bus so one of the young men came over and asked to use the booster cables. Hogan immediately let him know not to come too close and the young man called out to make sure that it was okay to walk into camp. It is good to know that Hogan will do that and looks intimidating enough to cause some worry.
It wasn't too long before he was up and running again and the kids were off to have more fun in the dark. We said good bye with a "have fun and be careful" and off they went. It is funny that somehow, being parents never ever quite leaves us - even when the kids belong to someone else. Peace and quiet once again surrounded us.
