Happy Valentine’s Day! Flowers,
candy or dinner plans. We hope
everyone enjoys their day with loved
ones.
The weatherman predicted the
worst snowstorm in five years on
Thursday evening. The radio
announcers predicted on Thursday
no school for Friday and the report
was that the grocery store was
extremely busy Thursday morning as
folks prepared for the fierce return of
winter. It was not as fierce as what
was expected, even though schools
were closed. But it did snow, and
snow, and snow. A heavy snow
blanketed the area, 20 centimetres or
so, and roads were snow covered and
slippery. The streets of Brussels
were heavy and many folks had
trouble getting around. Many cars on
main street had to get a friendly push
from friends to be on their way after
the road plows filled them in.
Twelve hours after the storm
began it seemed to pass and the sunwas even shining. A beautiful day onSaturday was enjoyed by all and thesnowmobilers could be seen from
early morning until the late evening.
Sunday was another beautiful day,
but Monday was a different story!
The freezing rain caused yet another
day off from school- but who’s
complaining!
Congratulations go to Howard and
Joan Bernard again! They have
become great-grandparents for the
third time in a very short span of
time. Granddaughter Emma gave
birth to a son they have named Nash.
The Bernards now have six great-
granddaughters and two great-
grandsons.
Returning from a trip of a lifetime
are Jim and Leona Armstrong and
Roger and Olivia McHardy. They
made the 15-hour flight to Hong
Kong to enjoy a 14-day Far East
Discovery Cruise. They were on a
Holland American cruise ship with
about 800 passengers. The ship
made eight stops in five different
countries in travelling from Hong
Kong to Singapore. They stopped
and enjoyed tours in China, Vietnam,
Cambodia, Thailand and Singapore.
They found it was interesting to see
the differences in the various
countries, and also how all of them
differed from Canada, in climate,
terrain, agriculture and culture. They
enjoyed talking to people from other
parts of the world and also the calmseas and good meals. Many of thepassengers on the ship were fromBritain and Australia and they met
some very nice people. The cabins
on the ship were wonderful and very
spacious. The entertainment at night
was topnotch and had great
musicians. The cabin staff, waiters
and crew were all very friendly and
helpful.
One of the neat things was
meeting nurses from this area in the
Hong Kong airport when they were
returning. The nurses were also
returning after being on a mission
trip to help residents in the area.
These skilled nurses treated 5,000
patients in the eight days they were
away.
Returning from a three-week
vacation are Jeff and Cathy Cardiff.
They drove to Savannah, Georgia
and spent two days in the beautiful
historic setting. They went on Vero
Beach, Florida and then onto Miami.
They met up with David and Karen
Griffin and went on an Eastern
Caribbean Cruise. They boarded the
large cruise ship, Celebrity
Reflection and started the cruise.
The ship held 4,200 people with
3,000 passengers, 600 food service
staff and 600 ship crew. The crew
works for eight months and then has
two months off at a time. The ship
would cruise at 24 knots and when
standing on their corner balcony, Jeff
reports it was really moving! Theship provided fantastic Las Vegas-style entertainment in the evening.The ship stopped at ports in San
Juan, Puerto Rico, St. Marten and St.
Kitts. They did the island tours and
were very impressed with their
adventures. Upon returning to
Miami, David and Karen left to visit
with relatives in Key Biscayne and
Jeff and Cathy travelled to
Islamorada in the Florida Keys to
visit with relatives. They report
having a wonderful vacation.
We are pleased to report that Peter
Allison is home from hospital. He
underwent surgery during the past
week, but is home and doing well.
There were three men from
McGavin’s at the Trade Fair Expo
for “blue” machinery, in
Indianapolis, Indiana from Sunday
to Tuesday over Superbowl
weekend. There was a Superbowl
party for the guests including Jeff
McGavin, Paul Dodds and Chris
Stevenson to enjoy and have a good
time and watch the game on the big
screen TVs. Another special event
for the men to enjoy was a concert
by Lone Star, which was great! They
returned home very late Tuesday
evening and probably passed the
group in the next story on their way
home.
Steve Knight travelled to
Indianapolis, Indiana with four
others from Stolz Sales and Service
to attend the same trade fair for“red” machinery. They were awayfor four days and stayed at theCrowne Plaza. This hotel is amazing
because it is built around a train
station. It has some specialty train
sleeper cars from 1862 that have
been transformed into rooms. The
hotel is located beside the new Lucas
Oil Stadium. They attended a
basketball game and found time to
go to the famous race track and take
the tour of the track. Steve also met
