Where in the world is Greg Kelley?

Toronto Canada

Greg is honored to be attending the Smart Ass Golf Tournament sponsored by Pentax and NHL Hall of Famer Darryl Sittler whose wife died of colorectal cancer 8 years ago. For more information on this tournament, visit http://www.smartassgolf.com/home.html. Darryl is now on a huge campaign to bring awareness as we all are. Tim Nelson is the keynote speaker and Greg will sit at the podium with him; Tim will be doing all the speaking…..Tim campaigns to bring awareness to the disease and encourage screening.  He is currently producing a documentary to be submitted to the Toronto Film Festival. 

Greg’s packed and ready to be shipped to Tim.  He was adamant about wearing his cowboy hat….Greg Kelley…..Greg Norman.  Hope he hit’s a hole in one as it relates to spreading the word on getting screened!  Kick Butt Greg!

Thanks Tim

Mom, Janet and Lyn visited our cousin Ken and his wife Joanne in Wedgeport, Nova Scotia. The trip started by stepping foot onto “The Cat” in Bar Harbor, Maine. The CAT is the most amazing car ferry in North America carrying up to 775 passengers and 240 cars across the Gulf of Maine at highway speeds. Wedgeport is a small fishing village close to the town of Yarmouth. It was once known as “Sport tuna fishing capital of the world.” There also is a flourishing boat building business in town called LeBlanc Brothers Boatbuilders. Manager, Neil LeBlanc gave us a tour of his facility and we got to tour a lobster/scallop boat in the final stages of completion. Greg sat on the propeller blade which was about 4 feet high. If you want to see the boat completed, visit www.leblancboats.com and watch the final finishing touches. We went from the top deck down to the turbines and generator room, it truly was a fascinating tour and I don’t believe I’ll ever step foot on one again. A day trip took us up to the town of Digby for some fresh Digby scallops; we then went down a narrow peninsula where the Bay of Fundy and St. Mary’s Bay meet. I believe the area is referred to as Long Island. We also went out on Ken and Joanne’s boat.

Don Brennan has requested the presence of Greg to join him at the winter ice festival in Quebec City. 

Don is back from his Canadian journey. It was a chilling experience with temperatures falling below zero degrees. He expressed the difficulty in taking photographs of Greg without gloves on, they were too bulky to press buttons and his fingers froze.  Miraculously, he managed to take quite a few photo’s and they came out terrific. It’s not easy to bring a camera out in freezing temperatures without damaging it . “Greg” was introduced by Don as “my friend.” I can just imagine the look on strangers faces, “OK is this senior citizen with it?” I hope his passing out business cards puts everyone at ease! Thanks Don for spreading the word about colon cancer and special thanks to “Cookie” for knitting Greg a mini hat and scarf, they were quite fitting for the journey.
