After filling our hungry stomachs we headed back to our rooms. They were great! ! All of our rooms overlooked Clifton Hill & Maple Leal Village. 't was spec- tacular at night with all of the lights on. Joan Tuck was thrilled beyond words. (She has never stayed in a hotel before or been to Niagara Falls). Some of the night hawks stayed up late and gathered in Kim's room for a glass of wine before bed. After a relaxing sleep, Thursday morning we all met at the cafe for breakfast. We then walked along the falls, took lots of pictures. bought all kinds of souvenirs & gifts. By this time everyone's feet were getting sore and it was time to load on the bus and head back home. We were very fortunate to have beautiful weather while we were away. Special thanks to George & Ethel Freeman, Claire Whitter, Bet- ty Fellows, Carol, Leemore & Kim for making this trip possible. By the way - I hear that a trip to the States has been suggested for next year! ! . Back at the ranch, for the residents that were unable to make the trip, we sure kept them busy. Bingo was held on Wednesday after- noon. Congratulations to the win- ners. Thursday a craft class was held. Friday, September 19, the ladies gathered together and helped Michele K. prepare a few pans of chocolate brownies. Everyone relaxed over the weekend and then on Monday they gathered for bowling. The top win- ner was Mr. Art Hyland with 111 points. Tuesday, September 23, a young lady by the name of Tina Winacott visited with us and gave us a very interesting make-up demonstration. Everyone looked undoubtly gorgeous by the end of the session. Afterwards over a cup of tea, we sat down and read our letters that were sent to us from our friends who live at Case Manor in Bobcaygeon. On Wednesday, we had 19 residents from Case Manor in Bob- caygeon visit with us for a "Back to School Tea." We held a Spelling Bee contest with our Nursing Home vs their Nursing Home. It was a close ending but Case Manor came out the winners. The winners received a first place ribbon. While the judges were marking the papers, everyone enjoyed the entertainment provided Archie Walker. Refreshments were then served and then we said good-bye to our friends. They have graciously invited us to visit their home sometime in November. Thursday (25) was Craft and Ceramics. Everyone enjoys work- ing on their special projects. Friday, September 26 was Bingo. Congratulations to all the winners. Here at the Nursing Home, we would like to welcome Mr. Arthur Edmonds who has come to live with us from the Guildwood Nursing Home.

AX Mn Bob Anderson and Gwen Luke display their best smiles at Mr. | Anderson's store called "Best of Things," located at the Port Perry Plaza. The store offers a wide variety of plants and gifts (see story for details). Best of Things opens If you want the best in gifts or plants, Bob Anderson may have what you're looking for at his store called "Best of Things." The store, located at the Port Perry Plaza, offers the best in 'plants, flower arrangements, brass, china, and gifts at reasonable "prices. The name, 'Best of Things," refers to the quality of the merchandise. : Mr. Anderson came to Port Perry from Lindsay to open his shop after 15 years of teaching elementary school. He's worked with plants for the past 5 or 6 years and enjoyed it so much that he decided to open his own store. Mr. Anderson looked around before deciding to come to Port Perry. His parents and sister live' here and he thinks that this is a friendly town. Planning took two months before the opening on September 26. Mr. Anderson and his 3 full time staff §' members put in about 13 hours a day Mr. Anderson offers a wide selec- tion of plants including passion plants, and gifts. In the near future } he will offer box plants and plans to } do flower arrangements for wed- dings and funerals. The interior of the store is overflowing with all kinds of green foliage and in the front window a small rock pool catches the trickl- ing water falling from a rock direct- ly above. The setting and the at- mosphere reflect the personalities of Mr. Anderson and his staff...friendly, warm and inviting. * Only at the time of inihal deve.oping and printing of C-41 Colour Film ~ GUARDIAN DRUGS PORT PERRY PHARMACY LTD. 209 QUEEN STREET.
