Monday 22nd May 2017.....Day 44!!!


It is really hard for me to believe that I am actually 69 years old or young!!!

My oh my where did the years go??

At the same time I feel very blessed to be in such good health and all my life I have been active and I feel really good.......

Heather started my day by making fresh blueberry muffins and a lovely gift from all her family a really great waterproof jacket which is very light weight and perfect for my hiking days and those rainy days coming up in San Miguel.

Then I was off to PB where I played for 2 hours without a break and it felt good and the day was hot and sunny!!!

Came home for lunch and Heather was busy working outside and I went and found some odd jobs to do around the house......

At 3.00 pm Heather insisted that I stop working..she set up a lounger an ice tea a muffin and my book and I relaxed in the sun!!!


Ladies sorry to disappoint you I know it looks like I am naked but I assure you I was not!!!!!!!

My special and lovely friend Gracie in San Miguel who is pictured below with her family....

had arranged unbeknownst to me a special birthday treat for me...she had contacted one of the loveliest pub restaurants just outside of Nanaimo, The Crow and Gate, and had left a gift certificate there for me for my birthday dinner, how very sweet was that???

So this evening Heather and Karen and I drove out and as can see we had a wonderful dinner in a beautiful location!!!






Thank you Gracie so much we wished you could have joined us!!!

So what do you think not bad for 69 years?????

Back home Heather had a birthday cake for me and we sat and watched a hockey game we had recorded....
I spoke to my brother and family yesterday and thanks for all the e mails and best wishes....

Blessed not only to have great health but a loving family and special and wonderful friends in my life!!!

Yashi Kochi!!!
