I has been quite a while since we’ve updated our Blog, like four years. One of the challenges with Covid and the missing year is that so many other things changed, we were busy and we fell out of our routine.

| Kida lived in West Van but always loved the snow |

| Meeting Ross at the Peach Arch Park that never closed let us see him for the first time in more than 6 months. All bagged up and masked. How easy it is to forget how difficult the COVID times were. |
Both Jess and Ross have graduated from university, Ross moved to the USA, did his Masters in California and got a job in Phoenix. JJ moved to Calgary to start her career and got a dog, (little) Joe. Our dog Kida lost her fight with cancer, and we got our new dog Woodley. Marina guided her tennis club through the difficult Covid period as President and managed to keep the club open and available for play in spite of some folks who seemed determined to defy the rules set down by the Provincial Health Officer. I continued to work but part time instead of full-time, which I have adjusted to quite well.
Meanwhile Tara stayed in Cleopatra across from Preveza. We had abbreviated trips in 2021 and 2022 with a total of two weeks each year, and this year we (I) decided to take a longer trip since I am between assignments. With Marina working and me not, it seemed like an ideal time to head to the boat. Add to that Jessie and Kyle deciding to take a travel year in Europe, I had my partner to get the boat ready, and then put it away too. The only real drag is that we need to leave the dogs at home, which meant that Marina wasn’t going to come for as long which sucks.

| Joe is quite a character. To play with him and a ball you must have two since he will not share. |

| It turns out that Woodley and Joe are the best of friends and love to spend time with one another whenever they can |
