HAPPY EASTER!

Hi everyone - We just wanted to wish all of you a Happy Easter. We're back on the island again for a few days of enjoyment. Despite dire warnings from his Oncologist about staying within a half hour of the hospital, Dallas had me packing for home as soon as we left the Cancer Clinic! He figures that the best medicine is being on the boat and if he had an emergency we could give Harbour Air some business. I have to admit that I've caved - being back home really does us both a world of good and pastes a permanent smile on Dallas's face. So that's really all that matters, right?
We made the best of our week in Vancouver and had a great visit with Heather's Dad, John, and his partner Vicki. They treated us to a Brazilian Barbeque - a carnivore's dream! Before we left we also enjoyed another visit with my brother's family. We had lots of fun cheering on our niece Emily at both her running club and baseball games. She once again scored a first place ribbon for running (obviously doesn't get her athletic ability from her Aunt Patty!). We hope to be able to watch our nephew Connor play hockey sometime soon.
So the Big Guy just phoned me to tell me he landed a 15 pound salmon which means we'll have a great dinner tonight! He also laid out the prawn traps so hopefully they'll be full when he and Steve pull them up tomorrow. Have a wonderful weekend and thanks for staying in touch! More later...
Love,
Patty the Big Guy
