Happy Birthday, Danielle. I'll try to call you in a bit. Hope you are having a grand time in Nova Scotia with Michelle and friends. Can't wait to hear all about it. First blog for me since school let out. Sitting here in my temporary home, surrounded by the contents of 129 Alsek Road. Everything seems a bit surreal at the moment. It's a rainy day today and feels more like fall. I'm keeping a close watch on the cranberries. It's going to be wonderful when I can pick any day of the week and not cram berry picking into one weekend. That's when my retirement will become a reality for me. I'm hoping to get to Fraser for some blueberries, but I have to find someone to go with. I ain't going by myself into bear country. You interested, Peanut?? How is your rock chucking arm? Things are going slow on the house, but I guess it will eventually get done. I'm finding it very weird not having to drive back into town. Dad needs me to help move the trim out of the house, so must go for now. It was good to catch up on all the blog entries I missed for the last couple of months. Keep smiling everyone. Love you lots, Mom
