Happy Canada Day!!!

It seems that slowly I am making my way through Canada to live in each province........ok maybe not. But for real - I am now going to be calling Alberta my new home province. I'll find my niche yet..... :)

I was out at the farm last night - the farm where my Dad grew up. It's so strange cause I've always heard the stories of milking cows, shelling peas & who can forget - PICKING ROCKS!?! But I've never seen - or at least not too often - that side of him. It's interesting the places we come from, the experiences we have in life......... They play a part in who we become I suppose but still I think there's deeper deposits of "stuff" - for lack of a better descriptive word :) - that define who we're created to be.

& man - the experiences I've had in just a year! Last year on this day - I was sailing w/my friends on Lake Ontario. It was an amazing day - but for the announcement of 2 moving south! Which seemed to start the ball rolling in other people moving out too :)

& speaking of moving out.............l8r!

hey thnx Norrain! & I suppose we can hold off on the milking cows bit.......ha, ha - actually they don't have cows anymore to tell the truth - so you're safe! :)
We'll come up w/something authentic to do - mind you, I'm a city girl too you know.......so it's all just as foreign to me! :)
