Oct 18 - Infinitus Strings Trio

The Infinitus group (Strings Trio) had a last minute cancellation and called us up to see if we could accommodate them. They play classical music with a little 'beatbox' flair added on top.

VanDusen Gardens

Prefect weather for our trip to VanDusen Gardens! The Golf Cart Tour is a great way for folks to enjoy the gardens. Volunteers share lots of information as they drive you around the grounds.



Aug 20 - Scenic Drive

 Well the plan was to go to Ambleside Park for another picnic but the poor weather had other ideas so we turned it into a scenic drive through Deep Cove. Sorry no pictures from this excursion as we stayed on the bus but it was good to get out and go for a ride.
