Our little house resonates with the sounds of good theological conversation, the clicking of knitting needles, talk of books and food and people 
we love. It is also wafting with good winter cooking; bacon and eggs, Thai chicken and rice, simmering apple sauce and our new favourite; Siobhan’s homemade crackers.
Instead of the usual quietude of indulging in good literature and busy hands at the sewing machine, we are playing Ticket to Ride, hiking the Cable Bay Trail to Dodd Narrows, picnicing at the lighthouse, and catching up on the latest at Regent College. Diversions are most welcome in the final hanging-on days of winter. And are especially special when they involve my kids.
If you haven’t guessed it by now, we have visitors from Vancouver staying for a couple of 
days and our delight could not be more evident.
