OPINION
1. SILVER THREADS: DEER ME! WHAT A GREAT TIME WE HAD
We were having such a great time recently that the local herd of deer
decided that they wanted to be included in the Irish shindig at the Silver
Threads Seniors Club in Petawawa. We had just feasted on Irish stew and
assorted salads, plus dessert and tea and coffee, when someone sang out that
deer were outside the window. Of course, just like the young at heart that
we all are these days, we sprang to the windows to see what was the matter
and low and behold a herd of deer were outside, probably listening to the
Irish music playing and smelling the aroma of the delicious food that was
served. It was a highlight to the successful evening that was our latest
dinner and dance held for St. Patrick’s Day. It was a fun time to be out
with friends and family, dancing and singing the evening away.
