St. Marys Ontario Fundraising for Zoe - 09/22/10 02:54 PM
Little Falls Public School, my son's school. Has taken a great fund-raising event and put a personal spin on it. This year instead of doing the Terry Fox Run with the proceeds going to the Terry Fox Cancer. They are doing a different walk and collect funds to help a local eight year old girl and her family. Zoe is going through treatment after having a large tumor removed, she is having treatment in Toronto at Sick Kids. So the goal is to help the family cover some of these cost. Nice idea to do something that our children can

Reading newspapers today and post on AR reminded me of an interesting story. Years ago I worked on a Carnival Cruise ship, in the gift shop dept.

St. Marys Ontario # 3 - 09/18/10 11:27 AM
Over the past few months I have been enjoying blogging about what it is about small towns, St. Marys that I feel makes it special. Yesterday when I was outside talking with the neighbourhood handy man contractor it reminded me of what I had heard the night before on the news. The news was talking about in large city how much you have to be careful of a contractor promising to do work and never seeing him again. The neighbourhood handy man and I spoke of this. We then went on to say "it so great to be able to check

Well once again summer is done for the children and off to school.
