Anthony Hopkins was in Vernon today, and I missed him. What makes it worse is that he was
spotted and photographed in Starbucks and at The Bay in The Village Green Mall,
and I was in the same mall except at the liquor store and Save On Foods. RATS!!!! He’s in a movie that is being
shot in Enderby, a village just east of Vernon. Aside from that, not much is happening here. I drove Mo and John to the Kelowna
airport this morning; they are going to spend 3 weeks in Oaxaca. Then I went to the mall to buy rum and
other ingredients for the annual Christmas cake. I made it this afternoon; it’s in the oven now. I sent a small Christmas package to Jay
and family before going to Mo’s.
So now I’m almost ready not just for winter but also for Christmas. It takes a while for a package to get
to Incheon, but I am a bit early.
I seem to be expecting a call to Victoria at any moment. That combined with my usual preference
for being early rather than late and the fact that I want to be free to ski if
we get snow has got me trying to complete all chores before the snow
flies. The winds of change blew in
yesterday and completely denuded the trees in the back yard. I've been enjoying walks to the Black Rock lately, but I'm ready to ski.
Dad will be 95 on November 16th.
