The Clarke's 70th Birthday Celebration

 

    Recently the family on my father's side got together to celebrate his parents' <sic> birthday near Toronto. The catered meal, plus excellent accommodations, coupled with a fun-loving attitude and a family-strengthening focus made this little reunion particularly memorable.

 




My dad, uncle Ian, and uncle Grant








An early vicitm of Uncle Ian's  'Cosmopolitans.'




















The hot tub...or rather heated pool...87 degrees Fahrenheit.








My 14 year old, 6'1" cousin name Jesse.


Sean - the only cousin who can design better websites than me! (He can actually code PHP/MySQL)

     What do 4 cousins do in a pool for 3 hours? Wrestle! The game we played involved dunking the other person's head under water for a split second. I got each of them down in les than 3 seconds--some in less than 1 second! How long did it take ALL of them to get me down? Five (5) unsuccessful attempts and only after they tired me out could they get me down.

















Toasts.








My dad!




me




those are my brothers






incredible food!












lil dancing.





I left at midnight on the bus and arrived back in Ottawa at 5:30am
in time to prepare for the City-Wide Baha'i Reflection Meeting.
