It's been a very hectic time lately. Most of our attention has been on the upcoming wedding. We've spent a lot of time making sure that all the details fall right into place during our special day. Sadly, we haven't been able to ride since Labour Day and it looks like we won't have many more chances to do it once more this year.
This weekend is also Thanksgiving and Heather's parents were in town to help us out for a couple of days. We all went Saturday to my parents' place for Thanksgiving dinner and later watched movies at home. On Sunday, Heather and Sandy went shopping while Jim and I went to the local driving range to hit a few golf balls. We didn't pick a great day as it was very windy and cold. This was a first time with a golf club for both of us this year but next year, we'll have to get out sooner than October.
During the evening, Heather and I went to the annual Rocktoberfest at the Queensmount Arena in Kitchener which featured Sloan, The Johnstones and of course Walter Ostanek. During his performance, Walter mentioned that this year was his first not playing an accordion (he played keyboards) as he just had a pacemaker put in two days before. What a trooper. He played a set that lasted almost two hours which was then followed by The Johnstones. Sloan took the stage pretty much at midnight, well over an hour after The Johnstones left the stage. Despite that the evening was very entertaining. On our way home, we made through a RIDE (Reduced Impaired Driving Everywhere) stop without a problem since neither of us were drinking.
