Get well soon




Happiness is nothing more than good health and a bad memory.
Albert Schweitzer

Remiss on last week's entry... as most know Clay is in VGH and has been for the last week. The pic in the previous blog now seems in bad taste, (although he was on the mend at that time, or so we thought).
He has three teams of specialist attempting to nail this thing down. Sparing the details, he has undergone quite an ordeal which has overshadowed most everything else around here. He does have a phone in his room... call me for the number.
With Mom feeling a little better, we're hoping we will be looking back at this next month with everyone feeling better to enjoy a family get-together. We may have to look into the group rate for CT Scans.

Our abbreviated thanksgiving was highlighted by a short hike along the "spine" of Denman Island with quite a spectacular view to both sides of the island. This view is across Baynes Sound with Ship's Point in the background.

No action yet on Cedar. We'll give it until the end of the month and come up with a plan as the market has cooled off considerably. We may consider a lease until things pick up again.

The weather has remained unseasonably warm and sunny with today being the first day of drizzle in quite some time. We took advantage of the sun yesterday and planted some small trees at the back of the property. We are told they grow very aggressively and in 5 years there should have a privacy hedge.

Curtis and Denise should be in New Zealand today. He has promised to set up a blog and when I have the address I will link to it. They have some leads on picking opportunities and Curt may be playing "gigs" in a restaurant that one of Denise's relatives own. Does that make him an international talent?
