Lethbridge visit 2010
Last weekend, we drove to Lethbridge, to visit OJ.
highlights:
- meeting and picking up Lesley, who came with us
- arriving and meeting Oren, and (after checking in at Pepper Tree Inn) watching him open his birthday gifts
- supper at Montana's, complete with their "birthday treatment" for OJ - the moose hat, announcement, and their birthday song
- the next day, a bit of geocaching for my guy and me (found 3, DNF 1)
- lunch with Oren and Lesley at Pizza Hut
- we took them geocaching to the same locations, a modified version - letting them search while we acted as imitation GPS units ("NE 20 ft ... S 3 ft"), since ours had quit earlier
- in the evening, Oren cooked supper (with LS assisting) - shepherd's pie, salad, brownies with cherries and whipped cream mmmm
- finally, a DVD movie "2012"; his DVD player started having trouble halfway through, so we finished viewing it on my husband's laptop
Yesterday, we packed up and all 4 of us came back to SK. It was good to hear Lesley and Oren enjoying games and quizzes on his cell phone, talking and laughing all the way from Swift Current to Regina. He's staying in Regina, at the moment.
