Pre Intro to "We weren't expecting this!"
"Even though things may be a bit out of order or sequence...I'm going to use my Blogg to explain, rehearse, and try in detail to explain what we have been forced to face in 2024 and how it unfolded before us.
No matter what the fianl outcome is, one thing is certain...God is Our Healer and our Saviour!"

"Today we did go do some banking things...I saw she was struggling and so we could not go shopping as Ruth needed to go home. I headed out by myself later to get a few things that we needed...I hate going by myself...but Omsie doesn't feel good. "Lord...You're Word is TRUE and By Your Stirpes...Ruth is Healed!"

Sony Walkman 30 years old!

Freedom from large stereos was made available to the general public 30 years ago last week. Weighing in at just short of one pound, it was bohemium in size compared to the tiny iPods of today. Cassettes seem a thing of the past, but amazingly, the Walkman player


is still being produced today, but has not been updated since 2002.

Starbucks mini card


While in Victoria over the July 1st holiday, we stopped in at Starbucks for a refreshment and I found thier newest gift card. It is designed to go on your key chain (I think that dangling with keys and change in a pocket will destroy the magnetic strip).

The new size is sure to please some, and aggrivate others.


If you collect Starbucks cards or would like to, drop me a line and I will show you how to get started. They are so neat and easy to display, colorfull, and the quality of art on the cards is impressive. Some are hard to find, but you can put together a nice collection fairly easily. This is also a great alternative hobby to coin or stamp collection, and is great for kids as well! Ask your family for thier old ones!

1st time using BlogPress


Hi there,
With BlogPress, one is able to post to their own blog from an iPhone.

Hope it works, here goes! :)





I enjoy stopping in at Starbucks on our travels. Good coffee, usually they have good cakes, and unlike Tim Horton's, it is made to taste the same all the time!

p.s. where are we moving to you ask? A NEW LOCATION is in the works! And since my blog is not checked often by others including you, I can freely say that for now it is NOT BC! :).

Who will be the first to find out?1

"Hello everyone!

It has been a while since I have blogged anything.

Well, life has certainly been busy...having fun that is! We have been spending a lot of time with our children and grand children, and we have crisscrossed the continent a few times during the last year!

We are both doing very well and are anxious to see many of you over the spring and summer months. A number of our family and friends will be coming to see us as well, and we are really looking forward to that.

As the subheading says, we are; “Sharing our adventures with family and friends” - and so that applies to this incredible Home Income System we have found!

This system is so Truly Amazing that it commands some serious consideration.

It is the "Perfect Money Machine" for busy professionals, stay at home parents, restless retirees, and anyone concerned about needing a bigger bank roll for the future. People just like you and me are turning this into Rock Solid "Recession-proof" Income. And the neat thing is...you will be so surprised to find out "what is isn't", as much as "what it is"!

If the dream of Financial Freedom has ever crossed your mind, you really need to take 20-30 minutes and see if this is for you!

In case you would like a printed copy of our newest full color booklet that you can hold in your hand to read rather than sitting at the computer, please email us at our business only email address which is: ed.ruth.hoyer@gmail.com

Just send us your name and address and we will get it out to you the next day.

We would love to hear from you today!

An update for all our friends.

:)
Sorry for the lengthy break between posts!



"I have a lot to blog and a whole pile of photos to post in order to get everyone caught up on where we are and what we are doing. I plan to break it all up into around five separate blogs and post them in order.

As a brief rundown, I will use this one without any photos.

We did move to Ontario in August into a new home in a really nice subdivision south of Windsor and 10 minutes north of Lake Erie. We spent only 6 weeks buying appliances and furniture and setting up the place. Then we took off for the deep south to help our daughter and family with the building of their new home in Arkansas, and after 24 days we flew into Seattle to attend a wedding in Bellingham, WA. We are now in Canada and will be here for another 5 days after which we will fly back to Memphis, TN, pickup our vehicle and go back to Arkansas for at least a few days. (I need to do some Large Mouth Bass fishing with Bro. Sonny Haley who is my 'fishing buddy'!)

We also need to get home, as Susanna and Brian are planning to come visit us soon.

We are both doing fine, we have made a number of new friends, ate a lot of good food, and are generally having a great time! :)"

CANADA DAY in Victoria, BC

We decided to take a three day vacation to Vancouver Island and be in Victoria for Canada Day and enjoy the fireworks there (photos to come later). To our surprise the roads and the ferry were not busy and I believe it was due to many people having to work on Monday.



The ferry we chose to take was the "Spirit of Vancouver Island" which is one of the two larger and newer vessels running between the Tsawwassen terminal and the Swartz Bay terminal which is near Sidney on the island.



We stayed at the Coast Victoria Habourside Hotel & Marina which overlooks the inner harbour. I enjoyed watching the boats, ships, and float planes coming and going on the water below us.


Tuesday which was July 1st, was our busiest day in which we walked up and down the streets of downtown Victoria and looked in so many shops selling everything from beautiful and expensive art pieces, to souvenirs.


Here are a few pics around town.



The Empress Hotel


As we wandered through the streets we found vendors selling all kinds of things,actors were doing stunts, fast food stands were selling tasty snacks, and of course lots of people looking for something to spend their hard earned cash on.



This is the "Plaster Man"...he only moves to show appreciation when you put $$$ into his pail!



Here we see the 'Copper Cowgirl' as I call her. She also moves and thanks you for a cash donation or for photos with her. She is very good!


As far as attractions go, we took in one show at the IMAX theatre and went through the Wax Museum. We also tried a number of restaurants including the Noodle Box, Spinnakers, and Murchie's Tea & Coffee Ltd, to name a few.


It is amazing how you can wear yourself out in an 8 x 8 block area!


The older architecture is perfect for the photographer.




On our way back we stopped in Sidney for some simply great Halibut fish and chips at Rumrunner’s.




Besides having great food, it also offers a breathtaking view of Haro Strait while relaxing on the patio. We highly recommend you try it!


Got back home late night and must say…we had a great time!
