Absolutely you have my permission.  I'm a bit bleary eyed this morning
as we stayed up late talking with Cindi.  She got here about 8 PM last
evening.  She got grilled at the border and pulled inside to explain
why the heck she was visiting and why was hubby coming to Vancouver
from Afghanistan etc. etc.

What a nice person she is.  We could have talked all night I'm sure.
She had a heated up dinner and then we traipsed down to the barn to
see the ponies, came back and talked about every topic under the sun
including the dangers of high carb diets--then I pulled out the
doughnuts and we munched those while talking about why we shouldn't be
eating them<g>.  It looks like we will head over to Vancouver Island
and visit Butchart Gardens and go for high tea on Wednesday.  We're
trying to coordinate things as my hubby has his hospital treatment on
Monday and Tuesday so I'm tied up then.  Joe flies in the YVR around 2
this afternoon so she is all excited about seeing him.

She saw the lamps, and smiled.  I told to her to stay put in the
kitchen and then went to set the scene in the living room and turned
them on for her.  Think bordello Ruth!  When she comes back out with
Joe, I will take some pictures of them, horses (she noticed how fat
they are of course so I'll do my best to take horse flattering angles
if possible), and the lamps.
