A STROLL DOWN MEMORY LANE WITH TWO FAMILIES

This is the story of two families that have

been friends for 46 years

Dinner at our home in Corunna

Kelly, Jennifer and Graham

A gathering of the families at Stag Island

Kelly, Shawn, Sharron

Jennifer, Stephanie, Graham, Curtis

Swimming down at Breezy Point

Joe and the kids

The gals with dark hair!

Soaking up the sun on the raft

Lots of laughing going on

Oh, the hair colour is changing!

My Mom visiting with Donna Mae

at their home

Here we are painting our cottage

Sue is in this picture

I think this may be the time

where a bucket of paint fell

on her head

The cottage looks so different

way back then

The painters

Mugan Walt Joe Donna Mae

Bruce Georgette Mike

Two friends celebrating their birthdays

We were born in the same year, two days apart

I am the older of the two!!!!!

Ah, the first born in each family

Kelly and Jennifer

THE TWO COUPLES

We look so young

Where does time go????

1989

The boys at the BBQ

Windsor

This looks like serious cooking

with Joe wearing an apron

PINK AT THAT

Enjoying the hot tub at Whitefish Montana

Sailing on a lake in Idaho

Many many happy memories of Stag Island

Donna Mae and Joe on corn detail

I think we must have been

having a get-together

by the looks of the box

filled with corn?????

1987

STAG ISLAND DAY

Our group of seven couples would bring their families

 to the island for the day

Joe would organize teams

The teams would do anything from canoeing to water games

to jumping off the end of the dock with tubes

At the end of the day a trophy would be given

to the winning team

Here is Mike filling up my water cup

In this photo we have.........

Joe and Di

Anita and Mike

Anita (Mugan) and Paul

Great bonfire Joe

Mike loves his ball cap

even has it on at night!!!!!!

 

1987

The girls have skirts on but Mike seems to

be pretty comfy in his track suit

Wonder what we were up to?????

Muffin got in this picture as well

1985

Our cat Ching made it in this photo

Sailing on Mike's sailboat

It must have been

'rough seas'

for me to be wearing a lifejacket

Having lunch down below

Must have been

egg salad sandwiches

made by Donna Mae

She makes the best egg salad

Friends sitting side by side

Getting my Dad's Petro ready for a sail

Our men

Mike and Donna Mae

A gentle man

A fun loving man

A good and loyal friend

I will quote our son Graham

'Mike had a great laugh'
