50+ Yrs of Friendship & Counting

My friends are fearless!  Amidst sleet and snow we plowed ourselves to meet halfway between our residences @ Orfus Road and Dufferin in Toronto.

We laughed at this particular bi-annual meeting, as it was calendarized; email messages exchanged since Thursday; even our mobiles & mini gadgets were busy reminding us of this event.  In anticipation of this celebration amongst friends, Amy wearily snored the night away, after a busy Sunday of volunteerism to give back to the community [[a BCHSIAA Ontario project]].  I, on the other hand, had a sleepless night... I was ahead of schedule @ 3:00am!

For those of you who have not met Sonia in Baguio, we met her @ UP Baguio in 1962 just as freshman year began.  Fresh out of Baguio City High School leaving behind old friends, we picked new friends and chose well, to keep them  51 years & counting! Sonia is a treasure to keep !

To all our high school friends, Amy and I keep counting back the years.  Without notice to our YOA [to keep you guessing!], we counted 122 years between the two of us and a lot of tall  "kimchi"  stories to tell !

White Hair, Gray Hair, Bottled Hair, It says it all!

Isn't it wonderful that you three are so close for so long and are looking forward to more of the same with new twists and surprises along the way? Thanks for sharing your joys ... it reminds me that I know you three too and for just as long.

We could have been a quadruplet and roared away with tales to share; do come up to Toronto and
be a gourmet to places around here. Nagimas ti mangan ---- ethnic-wise! Enjoy seeing our escapades on any of the blogs. Aurora and Sonia here in Canada are a real blessing and joy
