Spin Class Babes Go To Market Blues: Saturday, August 4th!

Silence will save me from being wrong (and foolish), but it will also deprive me of the possibility of being right. -Igor Stravinsky, composer (1882-1971)

So far is has been a pretty busy weekend, (our BC Day long-weekend), as we enjoyed Farmers' Market this morning and then we were invited to dinner at the home of Linda Ervin, close friend from Vancouver days, who actually moved to Penticton in the 1990's. She is a United Church minister, now retired, and lived in Penticton, for about eight years, before she took a church in Red Deer. I "convinced" her not to sell her house, [She rented it out, successfully, while away.], here and now that she is back she is very, very glad that she listened to my advice. Had she sold she probably would not have been able to afford a similar home, given rising property prices. 

At any rate, another mutual, close, close friend, Jim Hillson, another retired UC minister, [We met him when he was minister at St James church in Vancouver.], now living in Medicine Hat, Alberta, is visiting for the weekend, staying with Linda, so we were more than delighted to see him. We usually stay with him on the way to and from Falcon Lake when we make the journey back to Manitoba.
