It was really sad to leave Catherine’s place. She has taken such good care of me and we had such good times but, I was on my way to visit Holly and her family in Calgary. The directions were easy but I managed to miss a couple of turns so saw a great deal more...
My time in Black Diamond has been non stop. Catherine and Dwight have taken me to see everything that we could possibly fit into 3 days. We have been to art gallery’s, farmers markets, out to new restaurants and to dinner. We didn’t stop very often or very...

What luck I had to meet Nellie’s sister Lorraine in Winnipeg. I just want to thank the powers that be for amazing sisters. What would the world be without them? Lorraine treated me like a sister and gave me insights into why I love Nellie so much. On the way...
