Just part of the early morning show at Cadboro Bay Beach on this weather-changing day.
A friend no longer needed this bench. I advertised it on UsedVictoria and got a quick response from someone helping out a great program to help women in transition. When they came to look at it, it didn’t meet their needs as it was made of particle board. [ Our brief conversation on the phone may lead into other ways to help them.]
A few minutes later a fellow helping out the food bank in North Saanich phoned. At first he talked about picking it up the next morning, but soon phoned to say he’d come to pick it up right away that evening.
Went to Fury2 , a traditional and kick boxing event at the Songhees Wellness Centre. Our friends Travis and Anna from Eastside Boxing in Vancouver, won both their bouts.
Showed the original Wizard of Oz to two people new to Victoria, trying to discover a new life and language. One said it was their new favourite movie at the end. I hadn’t seen it for a couple of years. It’s packed with great ideas, meaningful moments and memorable quotes:
“How can you talk if you haven’t got a brain?
I don’t know, but some people without brains do an awful lot of talking.”
― L. Frank Baum, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz .
Found a new owner through UsedVictoria for a work desk a friend wanted to give away. It took two days of staying in touch, and responding quickly to inquiries, and it got picked up just before it rained.
My senior neighbours are political refugees, who work hard at low-paying jobs, and keep their property blooming and tidy, but not much happiness showing. Last year they became grandparents to a wonderfully beautiful little boy. This little fellow can now walk, and likes to bring his grandad around the neighbourhood to visit anyone they meet. The care the grandad gives him, and the glow of happiness shown on his face when he is with this toddler is lovely to see … it cheers us all up!
