Busy weekend

Our YP band is doing an exchange with a band in Newmarket this year. This past weekend was their turn to come and visit us. It started out pretty rough for them. They left Newmarket at 3:00 pm. They soon discovered that the wipers did not work. SO they drove all the way into Toronto to get a new bus. They gave them a very ugly blue school bus. Not cool! By this time it was snowing quite a bit. They never got over 70 on the 401. At 11:00 that night they had only made it to Kingston. They made the decision to stop and hotel it. They finally got here on Sat morning! We did the canal thing and some get to know you games followed by a concert that evening. They all (our band too) did an amazing job! We were lucky enough to catch up with some family that we have not seen in years. 3 of their kids are in the band. That was really nice. We will get to catch up again when our band does the return trip in late May. Hopefully we will not have any snow issues...but at the rate we going you never know!!
