The next day, we gathered up our stuff from my mother's place and grabbed Ken and headed over to Carrie and Carl's place. They just bought the place last year in November- and this was our first chance to see it. It is a beautiful house in a great neighborhood- I am jealous of them. They also had their extra room tastefully decorated- it was a very comfortable stay!
Ken was quite happy to roll around on the floor- quickly becoming one of his favorite hobbies!
That night we had a nice little BBQ. Carl, incidentally just finished receiving a round of Chemotherapy (and was tested to be free of the cancer) just about a week before we arrived- but he looked completely healthy and was in high spirits.
Colin made it by and was quite animated this evening, telling stories that even I hadn't heard in the 20 years I have known him!
Late comers were Scotty and Benita who had attended a Chinese wedding reception. They were quite unnerved by the experience of eating Geoduck and Shark's fins. Sadly, I didn't take any pics of Carrie this evening, but we had a great night- and it was a great chance to catch up with Carrie and get to know Carl!
