Last week was Port Alberni's, The Ultimate Fishing Town, Salmon Festival. DH took me there for the fisherman's breakfast on Friday and Saturday and we downed two eggs, two pancakes, two strips of bacon and two sausages. He offered to take me on Sunday too but I had the Craft Market. I made up for the lack of a yummy brekkie by having a bison burger for lunch. I'll get back on the diet wagon just as soon as we finish off DH's birthday cake.

DH turned 65 last Wednesday. He is now, officially, a senior citizen and can now indulge in all those cheaper rates reserved for students and old folks. Maybe he'll take me to a movie.

Nursekim and friend joined us for the celebration.

This weekend is Port Alberni's Fall Fair. We live so close to the fairgrounds we have to keep our doors and windows closed until 11:00 PM when they shut down the entertainment. I swear they increase the volume every year when the bands are playing. This evening I have a 2 hour shift in the hobbies and crafts building to demonstrate knitting. I expect it will just be 2 hours of knitting in public. I'd rather do a spinning demo. People will stop to watch a spinner, whereas I expect them to just walk on by a knitter.

Update:
The knitting demo was an utter waste of time. There was no sign or anything to indicate who I was, why I was there or what I was doing. People just walked by thinking I was knitting while resting my feet after traipsing around the fairgrounds.
