We have our eldest daughter who lives in Winnipeg come visit every March 
for our Anniversary. Two years ago, she decided to come in April rather, 
so she would get good weather. Second day she was here, we had a 
blizzard hit Vancouver Island, which dumped about 8" of wet stuff all 
over the place! She was ready to go home!! To WINNIPEG!!! Then coupla 
days later, the rain came and repossessed the snow! Lo and Behold, the 
normal green grass was still growin all around all around...:-))
But in 1968 - 69 we were living in Brandon and then moved to Calgary, 
spent just over a year there prior to moving to Kelowna where we 
remained until 1981, and hit Nanaimo. Where we remain.

Cheers, Doug whose next move will be much different :-)
