Where were you 29 years ago today?

Russell and I were married 29 years ago today, at 11 am, at a beautiful 300 year old Catholic Church in Sainte-Anne-De-Bellevue, Quebec. Where does time go? It's all been good, we've grown older and wiser but our hearts and minds are still young. The best is yet to come! It's been a busy week. I went to New Jersey on Wednesday to continue the transfer of knowledge with my successor then the US team took me out for dinner in Manhattan. It was a very nice evening, we had some good laughs. They also gave me a very nice gift, very fitting of NYC. I am anxious to find out tomorrow how they all managed with the storm that was to hit New Jersey and NYC today.

On Friday, we met with Matt and Ali to go over the recent activity on our home. The permit was filed last Wednesday, the septic is now installed and is apparently an engineering work of art! Excavation has also started, blasting follows. We will be going to Huntsville this coming Friday to check things out and take pictures. We also met with the electrician who will be doing the work on our house. Very nice man who has been in a family business for over 39 years.

On Saturday, we went to the 2011 National Havanese Specialty dog show in Richmond Hill. There were about 30 or so Havanese dogs who were competing for various prizes. It was a lot of fun to watch these cute little dogs parade in front of judges. We also saw our breeders with some of their own dogs. We spent the rest of the day in Toronto and stayed overnight at the Park Hyatt. We had a nice anniversary dinner at Sotto Sotto and came home this morning.

This will be a 4 day week for me as we are closed this coming Friday for a 4 day Labour Day weekend. Not a lot of time left at work and not a whole lot left to do. Just enough time to close the loop on some items.

29 years ago today, after the wedding festivities, we watched the San Francisco and Raiders football game from the Mirabel Hotel near Montreal before flying back to Edmonton where we then lived. I wonder what is on TV tonight??

Have a good week!
