Tourist in Vancouver





Ron had his open heart surgery yesterday but instead of 6 hours, they'd discovered an aneurysm on his Aortic valve on the CT scan, which blew when they were finishing the valve replacement, so had to repair and replace that making the surgery over 12 hours in total. He's still in the Cardiac Surgery ICU, out of it. To pass the time I went to Burnaby Heritage Village Museum, a 10 acre site of 1920's Burnaby. Here's one of the first cabin's with the outhouse out back. They had a replica of an old Interurban station my mother talked about and one of the street cars.
There was a wedding party in the living room of an original house.
I walked down to Deer Lake, very tranquil in the middle of a city. I've lived here all my life and have never been to either place.
