Lindsay and Charlie Millar of Toronto and Robert McLeod of Mississauga visited with Bette McLeod at RVilla recently.

Congratulations to Sandy and Sean Gander who celebrated their anniversary last week.

Also we are thinking about the folks who are going into the hospital, or who are at home recovering from a hospital stay. Those storm days sure made it tricky to keep doctor's appointments, etc. Mind you, there were some of us who really enjoyed the enforced holiday - got lots of home projects done.

Elizabeth Hudel of Kitchener visited for a few days with Mary Anne Kukoly.

Maureen and Roy Collins spent some time with their daughters and grandchildren on the weekend in Kitchener.

Christina and Tyson VandeSype of Guelph were at Fran and Jim Farrell's this week. Chris says she's forgotten what a good Bruce County storm is like. Jamie Farrell and Crystal Ferguson of Mount Forest; Carmen Farrell of Walkerton; Agnes, Ken Logtenberg and family of Port Albert were also by this week. During the week Fran and Jim visited with Joyce and John Farrell, Karen and Leonard Farrell, and Wendy and Roger Smith.

Hope everyone is ready for the gathering at the Community Centre on Friday evening.
