Had a great dinner with my Brother Gordy and his fiances family. I swear, no family does 'surprise' gigs like this bunch... Even the kids had NO clue at all they were going to Cuba until we got to the airport in March.. or April, when the Hell did we go to |Cuba? ... Anyhow, they are good.
So Crystal's Ma was up here in Fredericton at Crystal's Sister's place, and they had no idea that Her Father, Brother and his wife were coming up and we all met at the Chinese buffet on the North Side.
Crystal's sister and her boyfriend, while out earlier with their Mom had said, "Oh shoot, we forgot to take something out for supper, so guess we'll have to eat out tonight!"... And thus they made their way to the buffet where we were all waiting, balloons and cheers.
Fun to be part of this. Out West, while I did some things and I regret it now, of course as we always do, should have done more with my Aunt and Uncle there. And every once in a while Mike would have me over for stuff, but most holidays I was alone, I know, the smallest violin in the World is playing for me right now... But yeah, when ya get older, being alone on holidays ain't so grand ya know... When I was young, fit and able, I worked through every holiday I could, good and great money...
This was why I moved back. Was to spend time with family and I've done a lot of that and I'm happier for it.
I do miss my friends out West. Today is Jay Wysocki's birthday and we spent a lot of birthdays together, lol, though we didn't know we were both in Vancouver until the dawning of FB...
Well, we got deeked out for storms. I knew it wouldn't happen.. They rarely come through here now. Don't know if the wind has changed or what... Pisses me off!
I did however see some astounding clouds on the way home. It was/is storming North West of here.
Huge anvil head clouds and dark, beautiful billowing clouds.
Check this out.. My crappy homemade 'panorama' shot:
And this one I outlined this ginormous cloud.. I love the sheer magnitude of clouds sometimes. They are awesome structures that can bring soothing rains or deadly tornado's or hurricanes...
Clouds RULE!
So does Queen!

Hammer To Fall
Queen
Yeah
Here we stand or here we fall
History won't care at all
Make the bed, light the light
Lady Mercy won't be home tonight
You don't waste no time at all
Don't hear the bell but you answer the call
It comes to you as to us all
Yeah, we're just waiting for the hammer to fall, yeah
Oh every night, and every day
A little piece of you is falling away
But lift your face the Western way
Build your muscles as your body decays, yeah
Tow the line and play their game
Yeah, let the anesthetic cover it all
'Til one day they call your name
You know it's time for the hammer to fall
Rich or poor or famous
For your truth it's all the same
(Oh no, oh no)
Oh, lock your door but rain is pouring
Through your window pane
(Oh no)
Hey yeah, baby, now your struggle's all in vain, yeah
For who grew up tall and proud
In the shadow of the Mushroom Cloud
Convinced our voices can't be heard
We just wanna scream it louder and louder and louder
What the hell are we fighting for?
Ah, just surrender and it won't hurt at all
You just got time to say your prayers
Yeah, while you're waiting for the hammer to, hammer to fall
Hey, yes
Let's get on the floor, yeah
Hammer
You know
Hammer to fall
Yeah
Hey, woo hoo
Ha ha, ha ha
I've been waiting for the hammer to fall
Give it to me one more time
