Charmainus

Well thanks to the always creative Chelsey for the new header.  Kudos to me to even know what it is called!  This blog is starting to look all professional like.  So thanks Chelsey, you are becoming what every mother should be, nurse, teacher, referee, cook, maid, and now you can add graphic designer to your multi-talents.
We had a very cool and relaxing day with Curt yesterday.  We did the shopping thing where I got $305.00 $341.57 worth of clothes for $55.00!!!!!  Good old Ricki's!  I got a nice blazer, two dress blouses, dress pants, skirt, and a regular turtle neck!  Couldn't believe it!  Then I went and spent $25.00 on shoes so I can wear the outfit!  Go figure.  Dad was a little cranky that I needed one suitcase for the shoes, but a good thing I took it!
Anyway, on to our adventures.  Went to Chemainus and looked at all of the beautiful murals.  I think it is one of my favorite BC towns.  One everyone who visits "The Island" should really make a point of visiting.  Just because of those murals, it is probably one of the smallest towns with the highest tourism market.  We saw yesterday, two big tour busses.  Remember it's the middle of February, probably one of the lowest times for tourism.  The streets were full of people just wandering.  There is also a wonderful theater, which I always try to get tickets to, but of course it was sold out.  Too bad because it was Patsy Kline's life story.  Oh well we still had fun. 
Anyway, hoping the pictures make their way to this page, if I remember how to do it. 
Miss you all of course, and hope you can live this experience trhough us!
