Saturday Night Out 5/26/2007

Dinner at Carlos and Pepe's on Peel St., walked around, snapped some pictures, played tourist, coffee and dessert at Starbucks located at Chapter's on St. Catherine St.



The waiter at Carlos and Pepe's apologized for the delayed service. He said that they were so busy that evening, lots of tourist from out of town, mainly from the US because of the Memorial Day weekend.

He asked us where we were from and I quickly replied "Pierrefonds". He laughed and said he used to live there at one time and that he thought we were from out of town because we had our cameras on the table. I said that we were playing tourists.

Today's Bike Ride to St. Anne de Bellevue

Pierrefonds to St. Anne de Bellevue and back - followed the route along Gouin Blvd - through St. Genevieve, Senneville, and finally, St. Anne de Bellevue. Good news- once upon a time, there was this pot hole infested stretch of road running through Senneville, particularly in the area where these new large houses were under construction, have been repaved with asphalt, smoooooth!



Have a great day!!

Tito Lits

Group Ride

A visit to the Ice Bridge (aka Estacade), on to Circuit Gilles Villeneuve (2 1/2 spins around the Grand Prix track), and back to the start point, corner of Raymond and Lasalle Blvd in Lasalle - a little over 40 kms.

Body Worlds Exhibition, Montreal

Body Worlds is currently on exhibit at the Montreal Science Centre. We decided to go see it this past Friday, May 11.

Body Worlds Exhibition outing - we were not allowed to take pictures inside the exhibition. Took these photos on our way to the Montreal Science Centre and at Rockaberrys where we stopped for dessert after a sumptous dinner of Ribs at Bar-B-Barns in the West Island.

Trish and I picked up Nil from work, at the Royal Vic, then met up with Pam at the Place D'Armes Metro station near Chinatown.

We parked the car in the parking lot in front of the Palais du Justice on St. Laurent blvd. and walked a few blocks to the Old Port where the Montreal Science Centre is located.

Happy Mother's Day

Influence Of Godly Moms

READ: Proverbs 31:10,25-31

Her children rise up and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her. —Proverbs 31:28

About this cover

Many people have been richly blessed by what they learned at their mother’s knee. Consider John and Charles Wesley. Their names would probably never have lighted the pages of history if it hadn’t been for their godly mother who taught them that the law of love and Christian witness was to be their daily guide.

Susannah Wesley spent one hour each day praying for her 17 children. In addition, she took each child aside for a full hour every week to discuss spiritual matters with him or her. No wonder John and Charles were used of God to bring blessing around the world.

Here are a few rules she followed in training her children: Subdue self-will in a child and work together with God. Teach him to pray as soon as he can speak. Give him nothing he cries for and only what is good for him if he asks for it politely. To prevent lying, punish no fault that is freely confessed, but never allow a rebellious, sinful act to go unchecked. Commend and reward good behavior. Strictly observe all promises you have made to your child.

Let us honor our godly mothers today, not only with words of praise for them but with lives that reflect the impact of their holy influence! —Henry G. Bosch

Of all the earthly things God gives,
There’s one above all others:
It is the precious, priceless gift
Of loving Christian mothers. —Anon.

The virtues of mothers are visited on their children. —Dickens

Uncle Pilo adds his creative touch- beautiful shot

Someone forgot to bring a digital camera. It was most fortunate that Tito Lits brought his Palm Treo 700wx. Yeah baby!!!

Another Great Manotick Weekend

It felt like a long weekend this past weekend when we spent Friday evening, the whole day Saturday and most of Sunday, chatting, karaoke-ing, internet cafe-ing, biking, shopping, eating, sleeping, cooking, and many other "-ings" :-)

To sum it all up in three letters (excluding the punctuation marks) - FUN!!

The occasion was Marv and Lenny's anniversary. We had a great time!! Thank you to our host and hostess and their two kiddies.


Cycling fun early Saturday morning
