Proud to be Canadian!!!!!

Last weekend we were invited to a fund raiser at the new mariner. We dickered around about whether or not we wanted to go. We would have to ride our bikes home in the dark with the perils of dogs and pot holes along the way!!!! Finally our good friend Patti volunteered to drive us home so we agreed to go.

The fund raiser was put on to support a local school for special kids and here is the best part it was organized and orchestrated by a Canadian couple from Toronto, Ruth and Don. They prepared all the food for the scrumptious buffet. Now, I think it really helped that Don is in the restaurant trade!!!! He told us they were expecting about 150 people but cooked for 200 and then word got out in the community that there was a party and wow!!!! they served almost 300!!!! It was a great experience and it made us so grateful that we had attended and so proud to be Canadian too!!!!!!!!!!!!!
