"BEACH HUT" here I come !!!
Mom and I are going to BC from the 15th - 30th. I will be able to attend both Carrie and Kyle's and Kathy and Mark's weddings. 
In a few short days this is were I will be sitting and having coffee and maybe a screamer(some kind of delicious ice cream treat), maybe a smokie or poutine. The possibilities are endless. And since Marv isn't going with me I have to have his share too. I may...WILL have to go for many walks along the ocean and stomp gooey ducks. And Coombs Market.....need I say more?

And Coombs Market.....need I say more?I am also going to go to one of Dad's favorite places on this earth, Cathedral Grove. I so wish I could have shared the experience of walking through the big cedar trees with him when he was still with us. This is going to be kind of a memorial service, since most of his B.C. grandkids couldn't be at the funeral or at the hospital too say goodbye. I feel kind of wierd looking forward to such a sad occasion. Maybe I will feel close to him there, I don't know. I know I'll be close to alot of people who loved him as much as I did.
It also feels strange to be away from Marv for that long. We have never been apart for more that about a week since we go married 28 years ago.
See you all when I get back.

We are all glad that you are coming for the weddings. And going to the beach hut, and stomping gooey ducks.
man! i am so darn excited that i get to see you again!! i have missed you auntie sue
I am also looking forward to going to Cathedral Grove. I don't know why. I think for the same reason. I will feel close to him there. There are many places that I went with mom and dad but that is one that I have gone to more times with them than without so the memories there are more about him than anything else. I am so glad you are coming. Just can't say how much.
Sue, I can't wait to see you. The memorial at Cathedral Grove will be both sad and wonderful. I think we all have the same feeling. Being at the place Dad loved with people he loved and who loved him having a time of sharing about Dad will be very moving. I am writing this as you and Mom are busygetting ready to go to the airport. I can't wait to see you both.
How many geoducks did you stomp? Were the umbrellas up at the hut? Did you have a screamer?
Gosh this is a pretty blog. Too bad nothing ever happens on here anymore... Sigh.
The Beach Hut is closed for the season and you still haven't posted anything new. You have commented on other blogs so I thought just maybe there would be something new, but... nope. I will keep on checking though.
