Welcome to Day 3 of our Virtual My Parkgate Break!

Today we start the day with Canadian favourite, Stuart McLean, sharing a story about a visit to the dentist. What a great storyteller! After this we have some touching and and funny animal videos. Pets bring so much richness into the lives of many! But first, let us start the day with a morning message from Pam Havens:

Stuart McLean was a best selling author, award-winning journalist and humorist, and host of CBC Radio program,The Vinyl Cafe. Stuart began his broadcasting career making radio documentaries for CBC Radio’s Sunday Morning. In 1979 he won an ACTRA award for Best Radio Documentary for his contribution to the program’s coverage of the Jonestown massacre. We have listened to several Stuart McLean stories during My Parkgate Break. Here is link to learn more about Stuart McLean. https://www.vinylcafe.com/stuart-mclean

After reading a bit about Stuart McLean maybe you want to end the day listening to the episode where “Dave goes to the Dentist”:

Lunch conversation topic –   “What is your favourite animal and why?”  If you have never been given a hug from an animal then watch this:

Now would be a good time to go for a bit of a walk or get some exercise (unless you went this morning).

Let’s end the day with a bit of laughter and fun which is so important to our health. Please enjoy this “Funniest Animals” You Tube video that I found.  Enjoy.

Hope you had a great day. I miss you all.

Check back on Thursday, April 16, 2020 for more.    (This is a hug)
