Went to yet another awesome Jann Arden concert last week – my fourth. Mike got us tickets to see her at Brock U. She was amazing and funny. Unfortunately, my pics of her didn’t turn out too well. Bummer:
Guess I should have checked the settings on my camera.
The weekend prior to seeing her, Mike and I went to Niagara Falls to visit my Army buddy from Hamilton. He and his girlfriend came down for the weekend to hit a show at the casino plus do a little gambling. We met up for breakfast at iHop then put in about an hour at the casino. We were both almost through the $20 we put in our machines when it finally paid out:
Yea! Came out with $150. That covered our breakfast, the $40 we spent in the machines, then the rest went toward aviation fuel for our flight the following weekend. We ended up flying to Brantford for breakfast on a perfect weather day.
Yummy!
On the way back, I flew us over to Long Point (where we go camping twice a year) to see the ice fishermen. I fly over them each year and this was Mike’s first time.
We flew along the Lake Erie shoreline on the way back. The lake was pretty much totally frozen and looked amazing:
Before heading back to St. Catharines, we flew over the rather chilly looking Niagara Falls:
Perfect flight! On the way home, we stopped at Timmies for some more coffee. Mike wanted a sour cream glazed donut, but the only had sour cream unglazed. The nice dude said he would go glaze one for him. How awesome is that? Quite a nice little treat for when we got home:
All the little goobers were just thrilled to have us back home, especially smiley little Peanut:
He still has a little scrape on his schnoz from when he jumped into the screen on top of the cage, face first. Not too swift. He was a little less destructive while perched on Abby’s head:
It’s been a fun and interesting couple weeks. I have been having a bit of an issue with crushing pain in my hands and arms over the last few weeks. Doesn’t seem to be getting much better. I guess it’s just a normal MS thing. Hopefully it doesn’t last too much longer.
Today’s symptoms: Lots of pain and very fatigued due to lack of sleep last night. I just feel generally blah today. Tomorrow will be better.
