I concur with Judith

in that it was a very good weekend. There turned out to be a lot of visiting, some of it with strangers. That was at Kirsten's going away party. The house it was at is a house I want. It reminded all of us of Baba's somehow even though it is much bigger. Speaking of Baba, Laura said she had a visit with Pearl one day. I could not believe she was still living there.
Wicked was so good. But I was shocked to find out at the intermission that Geoff had never read the book or seen the movie. So he was a little at sea; I had to give him a quick overview so he could follow what was going on a bit better.
A visit to the city often means new shoes. I don't know if Judith did me any favours by taking me to Gravity Pope. A person can't stay away from such a great shoe store. I must at least concentrate on only buying shoes on sale there.
It was good seeing the other Sivaks. Rod said that he and Deanna want to bring George and Kay to Rocky one weekend in the fall for a visit. Before we could drive away from Mary Lynn's, Peter hijacked us and took us to a secret subdivision on the riverbank not far from their place. Some developers bought land from the country club and made a development of mansions overlooking the river. There is even a footbridge across the river that goes to Fort Edmonton.
Then one final adventure, the truck broke down. Started making an unhealthy sounding clunking noise underneath, so we called Tim to pick us up and sent a tow truck out yesterday to get the truck. Looks like a lot of money to fix it. Good thing one of us has been making the big bucks.

I like the idea of Rod, Deanna, George and Kay coming for a visit!

That is a switch, Tim picking you up instead of the other way around.

It is my purpose in life to make sure GP stays around, I love that store.

Also you better get over to Rainbow Ford and get that Escape.

How far were you from Rocky when you stopped?

We were just south of Tomahawk, not too far from Drayton. The bad part was that we had to wait for an hour for Tim and the only reading material in the truck was Geoff's books.
