Sept. 24 Wednesday-today I go for lunch with Floe She takes me to a new place-Deuce on Launsdale in North Vancouver. I highly recommend it. We are getting ready to move onto the RV Sat, Sept 27. Bill still has the oil to change on the boat but that can be done next week. I started packing the dry goods to put into the RV We finished all the sanding and varnishing we are going to do. Just the command bridge to do in the Spring.

Things are starting to come together now that the twins are born and plans are being made for our journey South. The twins will be in the hospital for another month or so. I think they will be transfered to the Surry hospital so it will be closer for Gerry and Sherry. We hope to leave the Sunday of Thanksgiving weekend. We will move onto the 5th wheel this coming Saturday Sept 27 to the Burnaby Cariboo RV park. We did get the boat sanded and varnished. Sure do miss you Shannon.

September 13
Sherri's water broke last night so she is in the hospital again. She seems to be doing fine. We hope to go visit her tonight. Shannon phoned they are Quebec. I was busy sanding the transome of our boat getting ready for a varnish job. We are staying close to home waiting for the phone call so not venturing to far a good excuse to sand the boat. The weather is perfect what we should have had all of August.

Sept 4-11
BYC's Family weekend at the head of Indian Arm (Clemmy) 32 boats attend. A pirate theme had a great array of costumes even a fire dancer for evening entertainment. Fun fun fun. We stay 4 extra days to enjoy the great weather. Sherri phones to say she is dilating after her ultra sound so the twins could come early Sherri's twin specialist said her water was bulging and the head of one was down so it should be within the next 2 weeks. They did allow her to go home. We too are back at BYC.
