Niece Shannon's children with the hail from the storm that brought a Tornado 10 miles from their home in Oklahoma. "you can see the size of the hail and just imagine the sound of that crashing on the roof. Freaky stuff."*update- the back glass of the car was smashed by the hail. Holes in gutters and it appears some roof damage as well.
Debra had an appointment in Vic West and just down the way is the Songhee's. This area has lots of residential condos, townhouses and highrises as well as the Ocean Pointe Resort. I did some work on my laptop and watched the planes and boats go by. Lovely 16 degrees and brilliantly sunny.
Habs knock off the defending Stanley Cup Champion Pittsburgh Penguins in 7 games.
"Do you sense it yet? Do you feel it?
The lion has been sleeping for far too long, but the lion has awoken.
The magic of les Canadiens has returned.
Do you feel it?"
** Footnote: The Habs lost the next series by 4 games to 1 to the Philadelphia Flyers. The Flyers advance to the Stanley Cup Finals and face the Chicago Blackhawks who defeated the San Jose Sharks in 4 straight. GO HAWKS!
This chocolate booty came from Clayton. This ought to fix Debra's cravings for a while. :)
The four of us meandered through some antique shops on Fort Street. Debra fell in love with a 17th century wooden chest (unfortunately, it was a bit out of our price range - but it is fun to dream). After which we enjoyed a delicious lunch at the Old Spaghetti Factory compliments of Rueben.
We made our way towards Nanaimo, hitting some Garage Sales along the way. Debra arranged with her sister Linda to go out for a Mother's Day lunch with Mom R. This was a surprise for Mom and as of the writing of this post they are still in there enjoying themselves.
Beside Montana's at the Nanaimo North Shopping Centre was the Fun Fair. Lots of the usual sights, sounds and smells of a midway.
