A number of us gathered that day to rake and bag leaves, and clear brush and garbage. Even Kristian helped out. He would put several handfuls of leaves into my bag, then go to his grandparents clearing brush, visit Isabella the dog and then return to help me. He repeated this circuit several times until the leaves were gone. Then he took me to watch the traffic lights and gave me a lesson in "stop" and "go!".

Coffeehouse
May 24

We had quite a turnout of performers and their friends who came to watch! Not only did we have the usual poets and singers, plus the return of "Martin Wonderland" the Magician, but we had one of our church members' paintings on display. A highlight for me was the return of Brian Dunn to song-writing/performing, along with Robin Harbron. Three acts came to join us that night through contacting me on Facebook!! See my gigs page re. my own small part in the evening.

Click the picture of Diane cutting her 70th birthday cake* for pictures of that event and few others from that day. * By which I mean "her cake for her 70th birthday party**" since she may have had fewer or more than 70 birthday cakes in her life. ** By which I mean "her party for her 70th birthday" since she may have had fewer or more than 70 birthday parties in her life. BTW it wasn't actually her 70th birthday, anyway. That happened on June 6th.

Farewell to Velda Williams-Sande
May 5

The funding to Velda's job as Con College chaplain was cut, and so the position was discontinued. Velda and I were on the Thunder Bay IVCF Area Committee together.

Click long-time Cambrian Players members (and family friends), Karl & Marianne Wahl, to see pix of this event.

This month we also presented Maureen Hunter's "Beautiful Lake Winnipeg" directed by Jim Hobson. I didn't have a lot to do with the production this time, although I help with Front of House a couple of nights, and so earned an invitation to the Wrap Party. (We had pizza, but no wraps.) Here are some pix (of the play) from the official Cambrian Players' website. The production did feature my former Thunder Bay Christian School student (and Dorion Bible Camp camper/staff), Millie Gormley (nee Kamphof).

Because I had attended a LOTR meeting back in March on my birthday, I was prompted to upload my art from my LOTR-obsessed days at Churchill High. Click Gollum to see the whole collection.
