it will be vacation! We are planning to leave on the 16th if all goes as planned. I hear that the ice road will be open on the Mackenzie river by that time - I was really hoping the ferry would still be running. I am told it takes about seven minutes to cross - this by another person not too keen on crossing a river by driving.
This past weekend we had our hospital Christmas party. The food was great and the dancing was fun - even if it was held in the not at all swanky Elk's club. People were all dressed up - fancy dresses and fur coats. I had on my long underwear and boots under my silk skirt - but it added to the fun. Saturday I had tickets for a brass quintet. Jim couldn't go because of work commitments, so I asked a girl from work. It was worth the ticket. They have a good concert series up here, and its nice to get out to do something different. Tonight our outing will take us the Department of National Defense, again. We have been invited ( or I should say Jim has, I get to tag along) to a Christmas reception by the Colonel......no, not that colonel - I think the food here will be fingerlickin' better. I think I am going to have to invest in some fancier clothes next year.
