Peace arrives in Virden, Manitoba!

Wednesday, July 29th I FINALLY arrived in Virden, Manitoba!

My new best friend, and protector, Aussie.

Saturday, August 1st
Would you believe I got to go to a Rock Concert?! Derek & his buddies put together a band to perform for this charity event & I got to hang out here with Rob while Heather videoed their performance.
I'm SO glad I had my pretty blue necklace to wear for such an occasion!
I even got to hang ON stage with the band -- they're SO TOTALLY COOL!
That's Derek holding me -- he's a magician with the guitar!
What great sports these guys are to pose with me!

Next stop: OAK LAKE BEACH RESORT!!!

Suntanning at Denolf's cabin with Taylor .... before she had to go work at "The Booth"
Then Heather took me canoeing! What fun!!

I really wanted to go out in the BIG boat, but it was just a
little too windy.

... so we just sat on the dock and enjoyed a few refreshments!

Heather took me on a tour of the area while giving Aussie a bit of exercise, biking to the dam.

(Now my little butt's a little sore.)

Sunday, August 2nd
You can't go to Oak Lake without trying out the new golf course Rob built.
I'd never been golfing before. It was actually a lot of fun!

But the BEST part was driving the golf cart!
Wheeeeee! After a hard day of golfing, it was time to go back to the cabin for a few refreshments ... some, more refreshing than others ....

I had an absolute blast with the Denolf's, hanging out with Rob, Heather, Taylor & Derek, and all the fun things Heather took me to see and do in Virden, Kola & Oak Lake.

But would you believe they make you cook yer own hotdogs around here?!
At least TAYLOR took pity on me & helped me with my dog.
Thanks, Denolf family, for showing me such a good time.
I'm not sure yet where I'm off to next, but I sure hope I get to come back & visit you again
REAL SOON!!!!
