Today was a relaxing day.  I tried starting the coach today and the engine turned over easily, so I did not mess with anything – IF IT AIN’T BROKE DON’T FIX IT.

We went for a nice walk this am and saw my cousin, Brenda whom I have only met for the second time. She is the administrator in the Leask Municipal Office.  After that we headed out to see two other cousins whom I had not met before, actually I did, but I was 7 years old and they were newborns.

Aunt Christine took us over dirt roads, down highways and finally we were at Diane’s place.  We met her husband Phil. They have a very nice place and her hobby/business is quilting.  After having tea and a nice conversation, as well as a walkabout of her studio/workplace/business etc. we headed off to see another cousin, daughter of Aunt Christine.

More dirt roads, and a through a washed out road, the beavers have been very busy so the water was going across the road, then finally at Lorna’s home.  She is into farming, has pigs, horses, cows, sheep, chickens, dogs, cats, u know the farm.  She has some acreage (210acres, small by Sask standards) for hay and grazing.

After having tea and nice conversation we walked around and checked out the animals.  Having mentioned the animals, the puppies and piglets were the hilites.

 Then heading back to Leask, over dirt roads and highway again.

Today’s special person is my third daughter Fiona, her husband Fred, children Rachele and William.
