30 Years Ago

 I just wanted to post a picture of my Dad and myself when I was in grade 9.  I had just won the Sandwich Midget Relays 400m.  This was 1980.  My Dad passed on 30 years ago today.  He died in my arms.  I miss you Dad. Vjechnaya Pamyat.

Here is another one of the two of us but I am just a bit younger.

I looked up what I posted in my dad's obit.  

"HNIDEI,Boris In loving memory of a dear father, Boris,  Gone are the days we used to share; But in our hearts you'll always be there. The gate of memories will never close; We miss you more than anyone knows. The tears in our eyes we can wipe away; But the ache in our hearts will always stay. You left a place no-one call fill; We miss you dearly and always will. Lovingly remembered in my heart forever... -- Your son, Stephen"

Vouche is in Town

 Vouche is in town for the Forester 100th reunion.  It rained hard last night for a bit but there was a beautiful double rainbow.

Mexican Town

 We went last Monday to Mexican Town for the day after Mother's Day.  We met Glen H.  Had a good time.  Forgot to post but better late than never.

Siding Going In

 Yesterday we started having the rest of the house sided.  Fun stuff.

By our bedroom a little note.

Catholic Easter Dinner

 We had a nice turkey.

Aleksei had ACL surgery yesterday

 

It was a long day yesterday for all concerned.  Up to London for ACL surgery.  He only yaked  a couple of times on the car ride back but luckily we had bags.  Here is Mr Creosote doing a reenactment of that.

Aleksei got his license to drive

 

Look what the boy got today.  So as a present for getting his license he gets to go to London for ACL knee surgery.
