Took my auld mither for her 83rd Birthday to Gorge Road Park, to listen to my brother Russ play with the Walter Bodega Band. Lots of fun, did a little dancing, loved WB's version of Bill Gallaher's Shadow Boats, complete with the drum of the dragon boats on the Gorge, in the background.

Returned to Russ's for a BBQ, a Birthday Party for Mum and a few old songs. Happy Birthday Mum! aren't you glad that this wonderful land has declared a national holiday for your birthday! Happy Birthday Canada!!!
