Lost glasses

My brother lost a pair of glasses while going for a walk from the Erin hotel this afternoon. If anyone stumbles across them, would you please call my parents at 2176. Thanks! Audrey VanDyke

Pam, my parents and I were wondering if any snow owls were on the island this winter. Last year we saw a snow owl on several occasions, but this year nothing. Eagles galore, but no snow owl. Wondered if there were none, or if we just never were in the right place at the right time.

Does anyone know if the paramedic issue is on the agenda? I'm a resident of St. James, but if the answer is yes, would like to go just to listen and find out what our alternatives are at this point.

Through the exercise classes, Pam was one of my first friends on the island, and five years later is one of my best friends. When my parents moved here two years ago, Pam ...

Wonderful evening, thanks so much Heidi for setting this up. My mother enjoyed it so much, and was busy relaying all the conversations to my father when I dropped her off at home. She was so animated and happy, and I thank you for that.

This isn't exactly on point to the discussion, but it reminded me of a long ago experience. My mother taught kindergarten.
