Oh, Canada

After a delicious breakfast, Glenn and I headed to Canada to have lunch with Alison Craig. We stopped first at Tim Hortons for Tim Bits and for me to write some postcards. We had a rather engaging conversation of some Canadians that didn’t like the US or Trump. I think they didn’t like being called “the 51st state”. Who wouldn’t? Bottom line, they didn’t like all the tariffs that is hurting the Canadians and didn’t like how Trump was going about doing it however they mostly agreed with the other rpolicies.

Alison lived across the street from us back in 1987-1990 in Santa Cruz at Kilometer 6 house. The girls were 2 and 4. Wow, what a lovely afternoon and lunch with Alison. We recounted stories after stories of our time together in Bolivia. At one point I FaceTime with Ellen so Alison could tell memories of the Stewart girls. Funny ones.

We walked along the beach and had some great conversations until Ray and Linda showed up. We said good bye to Alison then drove to a coffee shop and park to visit with the Saucy. Ray and I graduated from Moody together and have stayed in touch. Great conversations and we even decided to drive 20 minutes down the road to eat dinner at their house followed by having ice cream and fresh berries.

Oh and it’s Canada Independence Day! Perfect that we were here. Lots of Canadian maple leaf flags. The beach was crowded and lots and lots of people walking about!Leer más
