August 1 2021

Well, I didn't have anything to write about for August 1 but now there's something very exciting. Dave and Louise, and, Marcia and Dennis are coming to Regina for a visit this month. As the man said, "I find I'm so excited, I can barely sit still or hold a thought in my head." There's no better way to start the month than with a Sunday morning visit at Tony's.

Looking forward to a great month

Louise and David said...


Yes it is a very good start, Ed.๐Ÿƒ๐Ÿป‍♂️ 14 out of 15 are right on key๐ŸŽถ.
# 52 needs a 9-letter answer.

ed said...

Oops. I did have trouble with my 9s times table when I was little but I usually got 9 x 1 right. Do math skills wane as you age?

Here are what are called wags ( wild ass guesses ) before I start looking them up.

9. London
11.Evening
15.Lake
16.Green meadow
27.Armentieres (not a guess, but had to look up the spelling)
30.Texas
32.Mexican
39.Ipanema (another spell check)
45.Iron
47.Seven
50.Africa
51.Farmers
53.China
54.Clapping

I'll wait for some others to answer before I start looking these things up, but I'm not waiting long.

Louise and David said...

๐Ÿ‘Our greetings are being sent to you from Peachland where we are busy preparing for our road trip to Airdrie tomorrow. ๐Ÿš™ Last night, on our first night back in BC, we fell asleep to the steady sound of refreshing rain☔️. Blessings come in all forms!๐Ÿ’ฆ

๐Ÿ’•We were so pleased to have had a passing visit with you and Marie in Regina on the 17th. ๐Ÿ‘ฅSuch unexpected encounters are delightful gifts of chance timing๐ŸŽ. As for today, we hope your seventy-third birthday celebration is deliberately designed to your liking๐Ÿ˜Ž, whatever that may be.(We suspect that a round of golf will be part of the picture๐ŸŒ๐Ÿป‍♂️.) Enjoy!

We join Marie๐Ÿ‘ฉ‍❤️‍๐Ÿ‘จ and all those dearest to you in wishing you a happy day, Lou. Cheers!๐Ÿฅƒ๐Ÿฅƒ

Thanks for your birthday greeting Louise. I seem to have mixed feelings about birthdays at this point but it’s nice to hear from everyone.
I’m looking forward to hosting David at our course in Calgary even though as a reciprocal to him hosting us at St. Andrews, it may not be quite as magical.

Louise and David said...


You’re welcome, Lou. ๐Ÿ˜„Dave laughed when he read your comment about playing golf at your Calgary course as opposed to playing at St. Andrews⛳️. Let’s just hope he can forget links play and adjust his game to an inland course๐ŸŒ๐Ÿป‍♂️. Anyway, he is looking forward to Monday’s round with you ๐Ÿค™. We will be on the road to Airdrie first thing tomorrow morning๐Ÿš™. See you soon.๐Ÿ™‹‍♀️
