Gander Lake Hike

Hike to Gander Lake with Clayt on Tuesday, April 15, 2008. Clayt is looking around for a nice place to have lunch, as is our usual practice, when hiking to have a enjoyable lunch, which is sometimes the best part, depending on the weather. This day turned out to be nice, and we looked at it as being the first sign of spring.
On Friday, April 18, 2008, Clayt and I hiked in Terra Nova National Park up to the Malady Campground, which was still pretty much snow covered. We had to use snowshoes, and in places it was hard going. On reaching our goal, Clayt put on a fire in the woodstove in the Park Shelter. It was so nice and sunny, no wind, that we decided to have refreshments and lunch outdoors on a Park bench. Here I am enjoying a refreshment prior to lunch.
Here is Clayt enjoying a refreshment, looking very comfortable in the sun.









On Saturday, April 19, 2008, another hike in Terra Nova Park. This time to South West Arm. Pictured here is Clayt enjoying lunch consisting of smoked herring, cheese, Spanish onions, and Barb's homemade bread. He looks pretty happy

Las Vegas Trip

Enroute to Las Vegas for our 50th Wedding Anniversary. Here we are in the Air Canada Lounge at Toronto International Airport awaiting our flight to Las Vegas. We travelled business class all the way, so we were well taken care of, and made the long flight a lot more comfortable, not to mention the meals and the drinks. Umm...some good.
