Well here it is October 1st.  Boy it has been a long time since I blogged. Well where do I start. On Sept. 17th. Wendy  and I were going camping for the last time this year but decided not to take the trailer and just go to Banff  for a few days. Glad we didn't take the trailer as it was really cool in the mornings but got up in the 20's during the day. We just rented a room at the High Mountain Inn. They had a free breakfast which was really nice every morning. We walked around the town and looked into lots of stores. Didn't buy much but did buy a few things.One that I can't mention until after the 5th.of Oct.(Wendy.s Birthday). We have Wendy's  birthday on the 5th. and Kellen's on the 6th. and Kristy's on the 8th. Looks like we should have lots of cake don't you think??
While we were in Banff we went to the old coal mines and look all through that . Interesting to say the least. Not much left of it as the Government moved all the houses and what they didn't move has fallen down as it was closed about 90 years ago.All in all we had a great time just the two of us walking and talking and planning as Mandy and Jorge and the boys were coming here on the 25which was last Tuesday. We picked them up at the airport and they are all settled in now.It will be a week tomorrow.
Today  we all went into Lethbridge as Tanya and Tom and the kids moved to another (larger) home still in Lethbridge.
They are predicting cold weather coming soon so tomorrow maybe I put the fountain away and clean them for the winter. Only have 5 of them but it takes a while to pressure spray them and get them clean.  Then I have to blow out the outside water lines with the compressor so they don't freeze during the winter.
Our flowers are still looking good but if it gets as cold as they are saying it will they will be gone in a few days. We are gearing up for all the birthdays and then Cynthia and her family are coming  for Thanks Giving so we should have a house full. Guess I had better buy a big turkey eh?? Well maybe two as with Tanya and the kids , Kristy and Bob and Mandy and Jorge and the boys plus Cynthia and her family and Wendy and I there will be 21 and if Cass comes and maybe Mario that will be 23.  Sounds like lots of fun and eating going to happen around here. With all the cakes for the birthdays and the turkey for thankgiving  and of course all the trimmings  sounds like I might gain a few pounds eh??

Well guess that  is about all for this blog. God Bless you all and have a great Thanksgiving to all our Canadian friends.
