To all our family and friends, Judy & I take this opportunity to wish each and everyone, a very Happy Thanksgiving and a year ahead to be very generous to you all.
We are thank full to have you as our family and our friends, thankful for our health, and the talent to give. In Judy's case, her knitting, which is distributed free by the West Carleton Knitters to those who are elderly and in care facilities, the less fortunate and/or in need. For me to give those of you who enjoy square dancing with us, some pleasure, challenge, and laughter while dancing in our clubs. 
I am particularly thankful to have brothers Dave and George with me in the Blacksmith Shop on Friday At The Forge, as we celebrate our first year mark of learning this craft. It has been a blast for sure.

To our square dancers at Adams Aces, the schools are closed today so no dancing tonight, next Monday is Election Day, Oct. 21st. and Aces has been moved to the small gym at the rear of the school, come in the same door and walk all the way to the end of that corridor. 
Next Sunday, October 20 is Cookie Club at Roy G. Hobbs Community Centre, 2:00 to 4:00 PM full Advanced dancing.


That's all I have to write about today, enjoy the day, eat well, and I'll see when we are all a little older. HAPPY THANKSGIVING

OCTOBER FIRST

Fall is now upon us, Square Dancing is in full speed ahead, the Trailer is all closed up and put to sleep for the upcoming winter, and "Friday At The Froge" is hot.
It looks like the Village Squares will have a full square of New Dancers this year, which is a good thing. Our Program at the Village Squares is "7:00 - 7:30 Plus Dancing", "7:30 - 8:45 Basic Teaching and Dancing", "8:45 - 10:00 Mainstream Dancing and review where required".

Adams Aces of course is well underway at Queen Elizabeth School on St. Laurent Blvd. from 8:00 - 10:00 and is in full positional dance mode with assistance where required, and as we build our confidence we will nudge our way into some A2 stuff just for fun. 

The Cookie Club hasn't started for the season yet, but will fire up it's engine on Sunday October 20th. from 2:00 - 4:00 at the Roy G Hobb Centre in Orleans, our program there is full Advanced on the 2nd, 3rd, & 4th, Sunday of each month.

Friday At The Forge is in full operation with many projects to build, if you have something in mind from the Blacksmith Shop  that you might like, we will try to produce it. We can make "Fire Place Pokers", "Coat Hooks", "Candle Holders", and "Knives", and some leather craft as well, but we will try to produce your "made of steel ideas" if possible. 

Well, that about all I have to tell you for now, life is full of fun and excitement, Square Dancing, Blacksmithing, playing Lap Steel guitar, or Drawing and making Leather Craft projects there is never a dull moment. 
Take care of yourself and each other and I will see you on the Dance Floor or when we are both older.
