daily life as life goes on . . .

Handsome and dapper!  Or is that retro and out-of-date!

The four Baker brothers back in our younger days.  When the 70’s were the 70’s and not a fake 2000’s imitation.  I’m on the far side – the good looking one!

The second oldest just died of cancer (October 1st would have been his 51st birthday, he’s the one next to me).  The third oldest is into construction and, along with his wife, is raising his son on Vancouver Island (he’s the far left).  The one left, the youngest, is just finishing doctoral work in Toronto!

 I woke up today and headed off to a pancake breakfast.  A
volunteer  appreciation breakfast.  Except I’m trying to stay
away from sausages.

Then got together with some other church pastors/administrators from
town.  Put on coffee that was thick – they seemed to like it.

Then home for lunch – mow the lawn, take down old Christmas tree lights
and  clean the garage out so we can get the car in during the
winter.   Talk to a few neighbours – meet some new ones.

Now I’m at the church working on a sermon.  Peggy just dropped by
with cookies for one of the church programs.  She graciously let
me help myself.  Voortman’s be praised!

And now with ginger peach tea in hand and a Voortman’s cookie at my
side, I’m riding into the sunset finishing off the last draft of my
Sunday sermon.

That’s life!!

10 Billion US dollars!

All in 600 barrels.  On Crusoe Island(s). 

One could become rich being a treasure hunter!
