Tom's Masters in Education - Went to Colloquium on Friday, February 8th


Tom presented on Friday and did very well. The professors present (four) had some lengthy comments but responded favourably without any challenges. Two even said they would like to see Tom pursue a PhD. He now goes to the Ethics Review Board in two weeks.
His advising professor (and I) would like to see him done by the end of the summer......

Our Weekend at Winterlude - Jean Cartier Park, Gatineau, Quebec



















We went down slides, tubed down hills, walked through a maze made out of snow, went for a sleigh ride and danced with a dragon.

(Rein and Leslie coming down the slides)















We did this all today - a beautiful day in Gatineau, Quebec with the sun shining on the roofs of our Parliament Buildings directly across the river from us .

Buck Lake Blasted with 40 cm of Snow!!

Yes.....this is Tom and Rein out in the winter storm that hit us on Friday night. They did the "polar bear" run to our garage and back.

This was definitely the Olvetian side coming out.......Andy you would have been proud (or should I say running right alongside them if you were here).

Bbbbbbbrrrrrrrrr...........
