I left work early Saturday to drive to Canada with my friend John. We went to Niagara On The Lake, where we met with Pam, Andreza, Tammy, Nat....and best of all for me, Bev and her husband Dave. Andreza, Tammy and Nat are from Brazil and in Canada to see a Sunday and Monday concert performance of The Spice Girls in Toronto. This is my second time meeting Andreza and Tammy. Our first time meeting was last April in Montreal for the Lara Fabian concerts. Now having met Nat as well, I am convinced that all girls in Brazil are very pretty, not to mention absolutely sweet! ;D Meeting Pam again was thrilling for me....she is such a wonderful and generous person. I love her. The whole time I was there all I could think of was that I wished Paula could have been with us. Paula, you would have loved it! I missed you not being with us. Best of all, for me, was meeting Bev and her husband Dave for the first time. Dave is a really nice guy, and let me say this about Bev...she is beautiful. I had such a good time meeting with such wonderful people! It was a great time, Bev, eh? (Get it, Bev? LOL) Niagara On The Lake is absolutely beautiful! I really hope we can make it back in the summer and meet up again...this time with Paula, too!

Here's some information about the beautiful place we met called Niagara On The Lake: www.infoniagara.com/attractions/notl/index.html - 17k - Click on here to see the place where we enjoyed dinner and each other's company (be sure to click on "history" to the left of the picure for some really interesting information about the place being haunted!): www.angel-inn.com/ - 4k - It's a beautiful place filled with lots of shops and surrounded by many wineries. They have what is called a Shaw Festival that attracts tons of people throughout the summer and I believe Fall seasons. Lots of activities as well as theater. I loved the time spent there so much that I am planning to make another visit! Anyone want to join me? ;D

Thanks Mark. I would have definately been there if I wasn't in California visiting my daughter. Next time for sure.

Hey, Paula, perhaps we can schedule a meet sometime in the Fall season when there are lots of festivities happening there. I'm sure we could get Bev and Dave to join us since they live only a short distance away in Hamilton, eh. You'll just fall in love with Bev and Dave. When I left them I had felt as if I had just spent time with friends of old. I swear I have never met a Canadian that I didn't absolutely love. Could be a lot of fun! No doubt John will make the trip with me as well. What do you say?

Okay, I just had a chat with Pam and she loved our meeting in Niagara On the Lake as much as I did. She had talked to Bev and Dave and they, too, loved it. So Pam is going to gather information this weekend about their festival season and get in touch with all of us. Oh, and Leona, if we have to we'll drive to Calgary to pick you up and bring you along with us! ;D

Hey Paula, I think it would be best when making arrangements for all of this to try to work it out so that Leona and you fly into Hamilton, because that is where Bev and Dave live. They cold pick both of you up at the airport and drive you to Niagara-On-The-Lake, where I would be waiting with a big cheesy smile and open arms! ;D

Okay, so far it looks like we are trying for the end of September to get us all together again at Niagara-on-the-Lake. How does that sound for everyone?
