Jake, washing dishes
Here is Jake doing one of his household chores.
He takes dish-washing seriously.
This tap is a fake; no water in it.
We carry water from the next room for all our dishes.
Jake is 79 now.
A Valentine
This lovely Valentine came in the mail this week from my cousin, Florence.
Sandy and I went to a banquet our church sponsored to raise money for the poor people in Peru; several persons are going to go to Peru in a few weeks to help on some projects there.
The banquet was wonderful food. We also had guitar music by 2 different guys. And a harp player. Each played solo.
Oliver Tractor
Jake recently received this tractor on February 7th from one of our
neighbours.
It has mint green wheels and is 1959. Jake has several model tractors now; some displayed now in Peter's movie cupboard (glass front)

Hello Everyone, thanks for viewing my blog.
Not much to see lately.
I tried to put on a cute picture of a girl in a heart,
it went on about a dozen, times, then the hassle to remove it
Then I added a nice picture of roses, it also duplicated over and over.
So I will just tell you that Jake and I went to Legal today, February 4th.
We took our van for oil change to Legal Motors. We got a nice car calendar!
They had a few on the counter to give away.
Then to the restaurant for coffee and cinnamon buns. I think it has changed hands since last year.
Then to the Co-op, bought over a $100 of groceries there. Got a newsletter and learned that they are in danger of closing--have been in operation in Legal since 1942. They need l8% more in business now to keep going.
It is not our usual place to shop since it is quite a distance from our home; we shop in Westlock.
Happy Heart Month everyone!
