Birthday Day

My birthday was quiet but nice. Ryanne, Catherine and I met Margaret Ann for lunch at the pub then we went shopping. They were clothes shopping but I was more interested in the book store. They had local books and I picked up two. One was of the 1,000 Islands and there was a nice photo of one of my dad's ship CCGS Griffin in it. Just for that I had to buy it. I also found a post card of the ship. It's in port so I may go down and get a good photo. The other ship he was the skipper of, GCGS Simcoe, was out. My sister has a nice painting of it. But I digress. I also bought a book of Canadianisms. That should drive everyone at work nuts! Later we had a nice dinner at home of fettachini Alfredo and played a game of Scattegories. That is a really fun game, I'm going to have to buy it. My BIL Erik is hilarious when he plays that game.
