And as luck would have it, there were several sandhill cranes in the park.<\/p>\n<p>Peter and I saw <i><b>The Social Network<\/b> <\/i>last night. A good movie. Great acting. The female roles were pathetic for the most part though. It portrayed what I have been led to believe: no one makes a fortune without sacrificing others. I recently read articles about the founders of facebook Sean Parker (Vanity fair) and Mark Zukerberg (The New Yorker)&#8211;interesting characters.<\/p>\n<p>Mistaya is off to Vancouver this afternoon for more ME to WE (social justice group and conference). She&#8217;s joined the local chapter of the national group too.<br \/>Tabs joined school choir. Now she will be singing all week&#8211;as she belongs to the Kelowna Community Youth Choir as well.<br \/>Pip and I have been enjoying her speech class. She needs more practice with her <i>S<\/i> and<i> F<\/i> sounds. She is such a physical kid&#8211;always running and jumping. She seriously hurt her leg again&#8211;a giant red scrape and purple bruise on her thigh&#8211;chasing after the dog. She runs around completely unaware of her surroundings&#8211;deep in play&#8211;just like a dog. When she gets hurt it&#8217;s always a huge surprise to her and she doesn&#8217;t know how or where it happened. My daughter the dog.<\/p>\n<p>Working on my novel as I wait for the UBC gang to respond to my phone calls and emails about a possible date to get together so I can start my research.
