We had a great turnout in March!


We are in March and Charles Dickens wrote: It was one of those March days
when the sun shines hot and the wind blows cold, when its summer in the
light and winter in the shade
I love it when these quotes convey my feelings
On our last meeting we introduced the “liars club”. This was very interesting
and in absence of new members we will continue this. We already have some
members who are ready with their stories and we are looking forward to all your
contributions.
I will see you on Tuesday and leave you with this quote: This is the trouble with
March. The warmth never lasts. There’s that narrow stretch when it parades as
spring, just enough for you to thaw if you are sitting in the sun, but then its
gone. by v.e schwab

WAI Speakers were Brad Dunlop sharing Golf News and Bill Weir sharing his 'life story' of his first year after retirement in 2017 (and joining Probus). At his annual physical, a heart problem was discovered - which resulted in a visit to Victoria Hospital for a scan which revealed 2 blocked arteries. The solution could have been robotic surgery, but ended up with the installation of two stents. Bill was awake for the procedures, and went home later that day. With regular cardiac checks, no further problems have been
found!

Several club members have also had stents installed, but for those who do not,
here is a sketch of what they look like in your arteries.
Our March keynote speaker was Don Mikel who spoke on Canadian Architectural Styles as published in his recent Field Guide that lays out all of Canada's architectural styles from the French in 1630 up to the current day.

Our March keynote speaker was Don Mikel who spoke on Canadian Architectural Styles as published in his recent Field Guide that lays out all of
Canada's architectural styles from the French in 1630 up to the current day.The association was founded in 1985 at a small grass airstrip in Woodstock, by
a group of Harvard enthusiasts determined to preserve the aircraft type. It moved to Tillsonburg in the late eighties. It is an all-volunteer non-profit
charitable organization founded with the aim of acquiring, preserving, restoring, maintaining, displaying and demonstrating the North American Harvard aircraft and other training aircraft associated with the Royal Canadian Air Force.
