RETURN

For those of who who have been following the saga of Tom's border issues, the big news is that he is back. Last Saturday, he ferried across from Anacortes to Sydney, BC, presented his paperwork to the border officials and awaited their answer. After reviewing his papers, one officer said, "I would have done the same thing" with regards to the hockey situation. This is Canada, after all! Two nights with friends and then an early drive north this morning brought him to the Squirrel Cove dock where we re-united after a very long and expensive month apart. I am so happy to have him home....AND SPIKE IS ECSTATIC!

A HUGE thank you goes out to all who helped by writing letters, researching legal information, offering housing and meals, making calls of encouragement, sending good thoughts and prayers. It was a community effort and we can't say thank you enough! Muchas gracias!

For now, its a beautiful summer at Refuge Cove and we're going to enjoy every moment!
