Up north the eagles have returned and the otters are playing out on the ice. The millions of flocks of geese are enjoying their days on the fields and nights on the water, all across the province.

April 21 found 22 keen canasta players settled in Meota, so one table of six was set up to balance out the players. The top score went to Cora Christiansen and Dave Sayers, second to Albert Huys and Eric Callbeck followed closely by Linda Ard and Stella Rendle. It was a nice day and a lovely outing for everyone.

April 27 the entertainment at The Lady Minto Centre in Edam was led by Charles and Anne Baillargeon from Meota, and it was enjoyed by all attending, from the Manor and the surrounding area. They are always a breath of fresh air to lighten your day.

While I usually don’t say anything about my goings on I have to admit that the sight of mother and daughter walking the hospital hallway did draw some attention, one from Edam the other from Leduc, Alta. but all is positive now, and both are going home. Thanks for everyone’s patience with me.
