    Wonderful, and well done!
    CONGRATULATIONS!


    I listen to the CBC radio station from Windsor most evenings.. During the 8:00 news break this evening the announcer said there were fundraising walks and runs and marches all across Canada today. He was reporting from a breast cancer walk in Toronto (another cause I like to support being a survivor myself). I was hoping he'd mention your walk for the SPCA in BC, but no..

    Still, I thought of you right away and wondered how it went..

    And of course was not surprised at all to learn now that it went even better than I'd expected! #2 Fundraiser, you rock, girl! Look how much good you brought about for those wonderful animals .

    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

    Thank you!!! Yes, the Terry Fox Run was today and they coordinate runs all across Canada. It's a huge event - one that I'm leading up to in a year or two. I also want to participate in the Weekend to end Breast Cancer - but that's a 60 KM walk in two days - not quite there yet.
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    I'm sorry to have missed this thread. I haven't been on PT too much lately. Good job, though, Slick.
    Blessings,
