Old and New Friends

I first met Mardie at St. Ann's Academy in New Westminster in the 50's where she was in Rosemary's class. I really got to know her when I borrowed her maternity bathing suit in June 1968 and convinced her to move down to Crescent Beach in the 60's to raise her family.

Then we met Kathy and Bill here in the campground about 2007?  What really connected us was that they were sailing in New Zealand where they became close friends with my cousins Laura and Dave.
It's such a small world. I put them in touch with each other as they both took the same Cruise through the Panama Canal this month and here we are reminiscing.
