October 8 - Happy Thankgiving/Columbus Day!
View of the day-An old barn waiting for the big wind to finally take it down and put it to rest.
A pretty laid back Thanksgiving for us, no rain, which was nice. We had decided to finish writing the play that we were going to be doing for the harvesters convention in Banff. Al though cutting the grass in the ditch with a gas push mower was a better thing to do, so that was that. At least until just before it was time to watch the second CFL football game...he did manage a half an hour of creativity before being drawn to the tube.
Al's schedule for the day also included going over to a cousin's house to watch another game and take part in the annual hockey draft. Too many participants, meant his favorite players were getting scooped up before the turn came around to him...oh well, at least the Roughriders won the game.
Marilyn was invited out for turkey supper by the neighbors to the east...once again, she never turns down the chance for turkey dinner. After a lovely supper, she went back home where the two gents that would be acting in the Banff productions were waiting for the first rehearsal. Al the director finally showed up an hour and a half later and got to listen to some of the lines, and he just might admit to having a hand in this one.
Once the guys left, it was more unpacking...someone is refilling the bags during the night, kind of like the "reverse" shoe makers elves. There is light at the end of the tunnel though, and it will have to be done before we leave for Pingree, ND on Wednesday.
Marilyn refuses to come home to more work...
