but we did salute the family and being apart and together. We were a couple of minutes late, and all sitting around the living room with tv tables full of food.. There was no way anyone could move to access a suitable glass, but the family was remembered. We thought of all of you in your own homes, and gave thanks for our pending reunion.
Dinner was at Sheila's home on Churchill Drive, west of Osborne. Darren and Amber were a little late and not really sure of where they were going, but Loren stood in front of the living room window, cell phone in hand, and guided them in. They commented about seeing him in the window and realizing that this was the house. Beth, it made me remember the train trip you took with, I think, both of your boys, but maybe just Will, and us all running out to the deck of the house on Woodside to wave at you, as the train rolled by.
It was a fairly small house--about 1000sq. ft., a bungalow. She is slowly renovating it to suit herself, and this involves some significant renovations. But, what I noticed about the neighbourhood was the number of very large homes that have been built there. True mini-mansions, some of them on Jubilee, where it backs onto the river bank. Quite a change to the neighbourhood we knew.
