All in all, today was a good day. It started with two hours on my knees digging out weeds at Trillium Hill, which wasn't that much fun, but it did give me a chance to enjoy the beginning of the colour change on the escarpment.
-----------------------------------------
Then, I attended the Celebration of Mary-Anne Leach's Life. It was good to see Ron again - he dropped out of golf to devote his time to Mary-Anne during her lengthy illness. She went out on her own terms, bless her soul.
It will be good to have Ron join us on the golf course again next season. And Ron, don't worry about your wonky knee - Al and I will tee your ball up and retrieve it from the cup. We know you can't rely on Sven!
------------------------------------------
And, tonight at the Optimist meeting we were glad to see Sylvia Pawluk again. She and Peter were staunch members of the club until they relocated to the west coast eight years ago to be near their sons.
That's Sylvia, Matchmaker Ed, and Rose.
---------------------------------------------
However, there is a bit of bad news. First, Mardi beat me at cards again. And second, sorry folks, but it's time for our Optimist Turkey Roll once again. Same as last year, $20 gets you 7 chances to win a turkey/gift card.
Every dollar goes to the charities we support. We can do that because hall rentals cover our meeting nights, plus we overcharge ourselves for our dinners, and we have a pay bar - and those funds cover our club expenses.
Let me know if you can help us out once again.
--------------------------------------
Stay well.
