I saw Mano again tonight...after about 10 years! He and Karen and their two daughters arrived at my place around 5:30 this afternoon.
We went for dinner at the Freehouse. Afterwards I bought the girls some ice cream before we all went for a walk along the river, and then returning along Spadina Ave. Bonus - no mosquitoes.
They're on their way home to Ottawa, after spending a few weeks in Vancouver.
From left to right: Ashwyn, Karen, Mika, Mano, and Edgar.
In many ways Mano hasn't changed at all. He still loves Formula 1 racing. He talked about it with the same passion and enthusiasm as in previous years. He's also the same caring person as always - he heard with great interest as I updated him on the ups and downs of my life since we last saw each other. He's a good listener.
Dear Lord, please bless Mano and his lovely family. Amen.
I never thought I'd say this, but I'm glad there are no more planned visits in the near future. I've ha d a very busy few weeks: Hugh, camping with Eric, Patri, more Hugh, more Patri, and Mano. And in between all of that, cheek surgery!
I hope to get a few days' rest, before preparing for my trip west to reconnect with friends and family.
Thank you Lord for all the wonderful people you've placed in my life. Amen.
