After the first snow day . . .


Had a wonderful day yesterday. The ride up to Mrs. G's was so beautiful on Snake Meadow Road. All the trees were covered in thick snow and the sun was shining brightly. A true Wonderland. The Christmas Concert by Jose Vachon, vocals, guitar and feet and the fiddle and vocals by Donna Hebert was just so much fun. We were in a large hall at the Foyer in Pawtucket, RI. There must have been about 100 people or so and most spoke French. The music literally brought tears to my eyes because I remember Mama singing these Canadian songs when we were kids. Sue and I will try to get in some more Canadian cultural events.

Have to cut this short because my breakfast is waiting and I have to go to Sears in Putnam and on for a short stop in Southbridge, MA. Hoping older brother will be back from his dentist appointment. Man, that kinda stinks! Dentist appointment and I'm bringing him Penuche! C'est la vie!

Grampa is already off to the VA for a blood test. Checking up on his medicines to make sure everything is working together OK. He really doesn't mind going to the VA in Providence and that's a good thing.
