Thank You for Birte & Jule

Thank you to all who came forward and offered to take the girls to Nanaimo on Thursday.

It turned out the 8 am floatplane did take off so they didn't have to take the ferry over, but the generous response was really heartwarming.

They are now continuing on with their eastward journey.

Thank you :)

Ride to Duke Point Needed ~ for Thursday AM

Due to the smoke our seaplane was cancelled today. Because of that we would be really grateful if we could get a ride to Nanaimo (Duke Point) as soon as tomorrow morning (Thursday) so that we can get to Vancouver by taking the ferry. 
You can contact us via mail (Birte.vollmer@googlemail.com) or phone (‭(250) 416-0674‬).

Thank you so much
Jule and Birte (wwoofers, currently staying with Anaïs and Travis) 

Frankel ~ Farewell

Please, just one last chance to dance.............. 

To hear the music play, move our bodies and sway

Ah, yes, "wouldn't it be nice" to trip the night away

But, ya know, "ya can't always get what ya want".

So, it's tomorrow morning we sadly have to go

Time seems to be moving too fast and yet slow

On the ferry looking back at Thetis our tears will flow

Our hearts so full with this place those things we know

Dear Island you have been wonderful to us, what a gift you have given our family, friends, and our hearts!

May your lives be filled with, joy, health and wonderful, wonder-filled years ahead

Myla, Steve and Jacob

And of course; Sister Mary Bubbles, Francesca*, and the notorious, Osama-Frankee-Bin Loaded. I do hope our new community is welcoming to cross dressers like Thetis Island is! 

*Note: “Francesca Stephane” would be happy to come back and give a presentation on; Ten Points to High Class X-Dressing, aka, Nothing off the Rack......Bookings can be made VIA TIRRA
