Flowers on the back porch purchased at the garden shop await planting. It is spring...
I love the long shadows on the grass of spring and summer. The tree is in front of our house.
What lovely blue colours in the flower in front of our sign.

The steps leading up to our house... flowers out here already too.

On Sunday, Rosalind ran in the Sun run. Here she is, tired but happy, back home. She came in 36,048 out of about 54,000. Way to go!
Then we went inside City Hall for a reception and chatting with the military.
And the mayor stopped and chatted with the veterans, including Grandpa.
Mayor Sam Sullivan and council member (Susan Anton is the woman in white, I think), reviewed the troops.
Being honoured was the medical unit who operate out of Jericho in Vancouver, who were given the Freedom of the City by the Vancouver City Council.
The Vancouver Police Mounted Patrol was there too, looking very sharp, in front of one of the Olympic flags (since Vancouver will host the 2010 Winter Olympics).
On Saturday, April 14, Granny and Grandpa were outside City Hall waiting for a parade. They had seats of honour. Grandpa was told to wear all his medals.
And here they are with the plane all put together. They were going to do it without refering to the instructions but in the end had to look at them.
