Leaving Surrey on Sunday

It's Saturday morning, the rain has stopped and the sun is shining}:}  It's quite mild outside but it is breezy.  The wings were good on Thurs. night.  The restaurant is called Wings and it is quite a popular hangout.  Everyone comes in to watch the hockey games on Canucks TV and Bob and Cher, being diehard Canucks fans, took us there so we could watch the game and eat and drink at the same time.  Our dog, who I thought was an angel in disguise, has turned out to be the devil in disguise.  When we got home and opened the door there was spongy stuff on the step.  Upon further examination we saw that the dog had ripped the screen in two places and scratched the foam insulation in the frame of the door in his attempt to get out.  Talk about separation anxiety.
     We spent Friday with Mike's brother and his wife and Weaver had Nazzy for company.  We bought a navigation system from Future Shop with proceeds from a retirement gift I received from my staff.  Thanks everyone.  We spent the afternoon trying to figure out how it worked, seems simple enough.  Hope I can manipulate it when we need it.
     Tonight the four of us are going to Vicki's for dinner.  She lives in Vancouver so we're picking Bob up at work (he works downtown for the MOT-he's a radio operator for the Canadian coast guard) and we'll head up to Vicki and David's place.
     Mike and I have decided we will pack up from here and move on tomorrow.  One day closer to our destination, whereever that may be.
     Irene, it's your turn for Wordscrapper.  I will catch up to you. hehe.
