The Schirmann's at Calgary Stampede again

News from Calgary

The past few months have been very busy for us and I am only now catching up on all the photos.  

Our vacation in Santorini in June was great – the photos attached provide some idea of the visual spectacular that it is . . . really doesn’t quite capture the panorama and atmosphere of Oia where we stayed.  It’s a lovely place for a great vacation!.  

Joanna visited in July for the Calgary Stampede and it was wonderful to see her again – attached are a few photos of us in our Stampede gear.  We also took Joanna to the Columbia Icefields, which are near Lake Louise and feature a huge glacier that is 300 metres thick in places.  We had a very special time together and were naturally sorry to see her return to Perth.  

Lastly, we have a new addition to the family.  Last year we lost one of our two Poodles – Lucy, and were down to Bella.  We’re sure Bella enjoyed being the centre of attention but we had become used to having a pair so started looking earlier this year.  After much searching, we found a Poodle breeder in nearby Bragg Creek and now have a 10 week old white Poodle puppy.  She is called Suzie and is cute as can be.

Hope all is going well for you and Marg.

Cheers, Adrian.
