Corn Maze and Free Admission Day
by Bertha on 26. Sep, 2008 in Canada 2006
The city of Edmonton is having a free admission day for all of their attractions on September 28th. Tonight I went to the corn maze with Jana and John, Paul, Beau and Christy and Charlene and I. We had a pretty good time wandering around carrying our flashlights just in case we got really lost. […]
Groundie for a Day
by Bertha on 14. Sep, 2008 in Canada 2006
A half day of hard labour this weekend as I helped Charlene with pruning an Apple tree. I learned how to run a chipper and watched her in action. I was clearning the brush from the yard and chipping it up and on occasion I got beaned on the hard hat with falling crab apples. […]
Happy Housewarming and Horses
by Bertha on 08. Sep, 2008 in Canada 2006
This past weekend Charlene and I went to her friend’s house in Olds to celebrate her purchase of a new home. It looked pretty sweet. Fully renovated from the 60s. I think Charlene and I were pretty tired from the week because we were laughing uncontrollably at things that weren’t really all that funny. (Ange, I’m […]
Weekend at the Lake
by Bertha on 24. Aug, 2008 in Canada 2006
So, old school gamers night wasn’t much though Charlene and I enjoyed ourselves with our Commodore and Atari. Jonathon brought his Nintendo and we all took turns playing on all three systems. A few days later we got the Sega Genesis working and played Sonic, etc for the whole night. This past weekend I went […]
Old School Gamers Night
by Bertha on 14. Aug, 2008 in Canada 2006
Oh yes, I’ve set up the Atari 600XL and the Commodore 64. There are parts for Nintendo, Sega and Genesis but I haven’t checked to see if I have all the components. It’ll be great. I think I want to find more games for my Atari as I’ve only got 5 from when I was young.
Shingling
by Bertha on 02. Aug, 2008 in Canada 2006
Today I helped to de-shingle a roof. It was pretty easy work but a little difficult with the wind because the tar paper flew around and the little bits of shingle rocks got into our eyes. I had fun though and we managed to take one half of the roof off in 2 hours. Later, […]
Setting up House
by Bertha on 29. Jul, 2008 in Canada 2006
So, I’m basically settled mentally, just need a few more items physically. I don’t have a couch or table/coffee table. Lots of stuff still in boxes in the basement but obviously I don’t need them urgently since they are still sitting where I left them when I moved in. I bought a fancy knife. I’m […]
Capital Ex
by Bertha on 26. Jul, 2008 in Canada 2006
Busy Saturday today! Went to see the new Batman movie, Dark Knight and then headed to Capital Ex for a little walk around and to see the larger, expanded butterfly exhibit. I didn’t much care for the larger, expanded butterfly exhibit this year. They had a larger enclosure but all they did was put up […]
