work at Sears. Nicole is busy at school with her sports again. She's been in a lot of cross country running (winning too!), volleyball and taking driver's ed. She will have her learners by the time this is published. Justin is taking band lessons again and has started confirmation. He also works on a magazine at school that was started by him and some friends. We had such a wonderful visit home in July & Aug. It was Roy's first time there in 7 years! Larry & Sharon hosted a perfect pot-luck supper reunion. The next day we had our Sibling Supper in Regina. All the brothers & sisters alone together for the first time, ever. We had pictures taken in the park, then had a 3 hour supper. Had a great time, traded lots of secrets and laughed the whole time. If you want to know any of those secrets, just send a stamped self-addressed envelope and a bunch of money to any one of us, we'll spill our guts in a minute. While home we drove a rental car to Alberta. Had a nice time there, visited some old favorite places and attended a great family party at Joy & Reg's.

Since we're back Roy has picked up a couple more contracts and we just get increasingly busier. (Well, he does, I read a lot) We also have a webcam that's occasionally on and the results of that can be seen at the website I mentioned on Page One of this newsletter. Denise is in grade 10 and enjoying herself - except that there is no cheerleading team this year. She still does a lot of babysitting too. Brandy and Craig are settled in to their new house at 2051 Elliott St. Regina S4N 3G8. Cory is now renting the basement apartment at his folk's place where he enjoys regular visits with his boys. Jackie & Wayne went on a major motorbike tour of western Canada with Axel & Petra in July & Aug. The full write-up about this can be found attached. They were out at Dad & Evelyn's for Thanksgiving on Oct 10 and they hosted another Thanksgiving meal at their house the next day. Life has been busy for them, as always. They had a fair bit of time off in Aug so that their student help could

get lots of hours in before classes started again. While they were off they tore the deck off the house and hope to replace it in the spring. Diane & Gerry have both been back and forth to doctors a lot in recent weeks, just getting their various body parts in good working order. Frank has been quite involved in all of his usual activities and much of his life revolves around his car. Niki has been happily taking swimming lessons in Regina again. They also have a new computer and their e-mail address is: digers@sk.sympatico.ca Axel and his girlfriend Petra enjoyed a wonderful motorbike tour of Western Canada in July & Aug. A full write-up is attached. Pictures are also available on the internet at the address given on page 1. Other than that, Axel is still pretty busy. He is looking at a couple of different career opportunities for next year. One is in the Black Forest, the other in Munich. In the meantime he is working on his PhD.
