2 seperate adventures....

Today me Katie and Maddie went East.... Dean and uncle Bernie went West.... here is the East part. When Geo came home today he asked us what we did... I replied, we saw a Dragon, a Giant Mosquito, a big Catfish and a haunted church. he smirked and said "you played Runescape all day" haha good answer, and quite possible... buy NO we went on an adventure........

first stop was Stonewall, there is a quilting store there Katie wanted to check out, and in town they were taking down the rides from a fair, so there was a Dragon in the street....

here is the pretty quilting store,it was jam packed with supplies as bad as Scrapbooker's is, to the ceiling!

Komarno, has the world's biggest Mosquito, I'm not sure why, ( well aside from the obvious, but every city could have a mosquito then lol ) but the plaque was missing so I have no info for you. It's giant tho' and it spins! This picture looks like it was taken from the mosquito's point of view.... just lurking until it sees the right time to attack!
over to Selkirk to see Chuck the world's biggest catfish. He's much prettier than the ones you pull out of the water!!! A little heavier tho'...
now over to River Road, and anyone from Winnipeg knows the legend of this church... if you walk backwards around this church 3 times at midnight you will see the Devil, hence the No Trespassing signs everywhere. We were there a little earlier than midnight.

so many of the tombstones are so old they have toppled over or twist out of the ground, this one is from 1872... and it wasn't the oldest one that we saw.
We headed home after that and waited for the boys to get home. In the meantime we played dice....
