100th Birthday Party

Frank Janes sitting in front of three engineman he trained including his son Don. There is over 100 years also in pension payments between the four of them.

My friend Don Janes father who also worked as an engineman on the CN turned 100 on Monday. I took my father in law to the party. He is 95. After seeing what he got (letter from queen, certificate from the mayor and plaque from CN) he has decided he wants to live to see 100 also. It was hard to find a 100th birthday card...George

Trip to the Lake

This past week I took a ride to Grand Bend and Bayfield. Mainly to hit the GB farmers market and pick up a salami at Bayfield. I walked the floating docks were my boat once was...most of the boats are new...hard to believe how many boats have left in the past two years. Did a long walk on the beach finding a good amount of beach glass...George
