GORD AND ELLIE GOWIE'S 50TH ANNIVERSARY

We missed out on this years Boundary Creek Marina annual Corn Roast, as it was our friends Gord and Ellie's 50th Wedding Anniversary.  



 The patio and yard was beautifully decorated to suit the occasion.  



 Just awaiting the guests arrival. 



 The Gold and Yellow theme was beautiful and appropriate.  



 Gord was showing the youngsters the commemorative 50th Anniversary engraved plaque he had made for their mutual 50th Anniversary gift to one another.    



 
"We're still having fun, and your still the one."   




 There was a great turn out and great food was enjoyed by all.


 And once the cake was cut and dessert was served, the party continued, well into the night. 







HAPPY ANNIVERSARY AND BEST WISHES ON YOUR 50TH.

THE VIKING STATUE IN GIMLI

When we went to Gimli for groceries this weekend, we also went in search of where they moved the Viking statue to.  


This statue has been a fixture in Gimli for many many years and we had heard it was moved and we wondered where they had moved it to. 




It commemorates the heritage of the original founders of the town.  I think it is as much a part of Gimli as all the boats in the harbour.



It is still situated on an elevated area as it was in the past, but now it is surrounded by paths and gardens.  


It also has commemorative benches to sit and view the lake.  



It is adjacent to the walking path that runs along the water front to the harbour and the beach beyond. 





You can view the statue from many angles


Plus walk right up for those photo ops. 




VERY NICELY DONE.

MORE PROGRESS ON MY KITCHEN



Almost all my cabinets have been installed.  





Just one more still to be installed.  A closet near the back door. 

Now all I have to do is decide on and order the counter tops.  


THEN THE WAITING WILL BEGIN ALL OVER AGAIN.
