Speaking of mozzies, at last Friday's dock party Wayne heard about an all-natural garden spray made from garlic. He ordered some and Mark offered to spray it on the grass. It's supposed to keep the biters away for 30 days!
My friend Rick sent me an email with some interesting maps ...
We've certainly got enough elbow room in the green area! But look at the orange and red!!!
Cousins Mel, Alastair and family live in Perth on the Southwestern coast ... Cousin Flo worked a few years on the Northwestern coast ... Cousins Barb, Hugh and family live in Queensland on the Northeastern coast ... and Niece Christine lives in Sydney on the Southern coast.
There's a lot of jockeying for space in that region!
For every Canadian kid who wanted to dig through to China ... it's a good thing we didn't. Haha.
If you "lefties" could switch ... we Americans could learn metric!!! LOL
Oh my! And I thought the Vikings were invaders!
I didn't know we had ANY Internet in 1969 ... wasn't that the "hippie" years?
Interesting. Why? "Western" values censored?
Canadians were well aware of "The Cuban Missile Crisis" in the 1960's.
THIS is a crying shame the United States of America doesn't use the metric system! Liberia and Burma are the other two countries that do not use the metric system either. When President Jimmy Carter had opposition from the House of Representatives, he folded. Duh. Of course there was opposition ... but that's what Americans needed to do. Lets mandate it folks.
Wikipedia showed this example ... we're halfway there already.
Google Street View is great. Have you looked up your address? Try it.
This evening we are invited to Mary-Beth's and Monty's for dinner! I can't believe they have time to entertain with a big move in the works. You see, they've sold their lake home of 30 years! Imagine the sorting and packing to be done. Yet, they are entertaining tonight. ;-)
