Amazing People


My amazing daughter and her equally amazing boyfriend Jon, (where are the grandkids?)recently sent me a letter to give me an update on their activities. They spent a month in California where they were the guest speakers for two of Tony Robbins Life Mastery Workshops. Then they traveled to Colorado Springs, where they met with the USA Olympic swim team who was interested in their methods of whole body training. Before they left Colorado they went to visit a place where they rehabilitate wolves. Here's a photo of Jon howling and touching one of them on it's back. I wouldn't expect any less from these two.

Happy Birthday Marie Jo


Marie Jo had a birthday this week. Mathew is treating her to a birthday present, which is a visit to our place. We haven't seen either of them in a couple of years.

Well I've been waiting for this moment, but it sort of took me by surprise. I didn't even realise that I had done it until I was driving home. I HAD MY FIRST FIVE MINUTE CONVERSATION IN FRENCH!!!! I went by myself to buy a 'Scie Onglet' an electric mitre saw so that I could cut precise 45 degree angles. Not only did I speak french for five minutes, I spoke french with three hardware store guys. Furthermore, what's even more amazing to me,is that, because there was only the floor model left of the brand I was trying to buy, I actually tried to talk them down in price!!!!It didn't work. This is not the States. But I'm still really happy.

Monique Peek 1


I'm starting to label this type of photo as the 'Monique Peek'. I already have a dozen or so, but I'll name this as the the first in the series.

I'm lazy. I should get up earlier.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ET JOYEUX ANNIVERSAIRE, WES
Monique and Kent
