Nikki's News
Hello from friendly Manitoba! I just wanted to let everybody know that Nikki has done something very special. She was featured in the local newspaper for the special thing she has done. A copy of the article is on the way to everybody, (Bruce, when we get your address I will send your copy). Bob and I are very proud of her. We have had many people commenting on what she has done. She has inspired other people to do the same. Let me know if you decide to take on the challenge. Take care.

Music fans!
Well Gay and Rob sure do have sons to be proud of that is for sure! Gay invited me to the coffee house being held at Sherwood High School. The coffee house is an event that is held 2 times a year by the music department to showcase the student talent. There were several bands playing that night with Tom and Scott being in several of them. They both play the drums very well and sing fantastic too. If you ever get a chance to hear them you are sure to have a good time. Hopefully we can convince Gay or Rob to post some pictures from their last gig.

Happy Easter!
Thanks to Gay and Rob for leading Bruce, Janine, Stewart and myself on the Hendry Valley trail this past Good Friday. It was a very fun day! Janine and Stewart had an opportunity to feed birds from their out stretched hands. It was a bit damp in the morning but dried up by the time the hike was finished. Gay and Rob gave us a taste of how fun birding can be. We saw swans, ducks and a load of chickadees, blue jays, cardinals and woodpeckers. Next time I will be sure to bring my binoculars. Sorry there are no pictures but you all know the story of where my camera is currently residing. When the hike was done we relaxed at their portable picnic table and Rob cooked hotdogs, Bruce bought us hot chocolate and for desert we had licorise and granola bars. Hopefully Bruce will be back home to do the Good Friday hike again next year.

Let's Share!
Trudy's family is one of size now. Keeping up on what is happening in the family can sometimes be difficult. So what is a phone call? Well, we are all busy and there are times when talking on the phone is too tiring or you don't know what to say or its the wrong time of day. I hope that by putting this blog together we can share what is happening within our family. Share stories and pictures of our trips. Share links to some neat places to go... and on and on. With all of us being 2 provinces apart this blog will provide an easy forum for just that. This will only work to the best potential if everyone tries to participate and not be a "blog watcher". It is real easy and we all have access to a computer so come on lets have some fun! You can do this from anywhere you are in the world providing you have access to the internet.
Mom, I hope this will make it easy for you to feel like you are not missing out on your family in Ontario. I know it will help the Ontario family learn more about the Manitoba family.
Love You,
Your Eldest
