Marking The End of Summer
  
For Vancouverites a day at the PNE marks the end of summer. Purchasing tickets for a chance to win the PNE prize home, a car or vacation is a definitely one you can't pass on.
From the traditional lumber shows and demolition derbies which are no more to the current dog show and free nightly music performances which are standard.
It is a challenge to enjoy all the different food stands which are available such as the BBQ ribs and deep fried chocolate bars. You'll still get the old fashioned favourites like candy floss, popcorn, corn dogs and those little donuts.
For those who remember the theme used to change annually, however in recent years it has come to be only the Fair.
I have included my day at the fair and have pictures of the PNE prize home worth 2.1 million dollars which will be re-located to Naramata Okanagan.

School is IN
It's that time of year again. Slow down through school zones or lose weight in your wallet.
Here's a good article by Global News.

LAUGHTER, the best medicine!!
Laugh out loud at life. It is a good medicine for your heart and spirit. It is a way for you to say"Life ~ I am still standing with my head up high." Laughter strengthens the immune system and increases your capacity to cope.
It has the power to heal you at a cellular level. Sometimes all you can do is laugh, even through your tears and pain.
When you are overwhelmed, laugh at your bills, your body, your kids, or at any unexpected challenge of life. This is not denying what is in your life. It is defying it!
One minute of anger weakens the immune system for 4-5 hours, while one minute of laughter boosts it over 24 hours. So try this......make silly faces in the mirror, laugh from down deep and bring out the child in you!
From some popcorn, get a few family, friends together and allow yourself to really laugh. Interrupt your worries and choose to make yourself feel good in spite of it all.
You Truly Deserve it!!!!! However, don't just take my word for it. Here is some research to back it up>
