Abooot our Blog (that's for my American cousins)

Hi folks,

Here are some interesting stats and an introduction to a new feature:

This here message is our 475th post.
And we've been posting on Ford Finsceal for for 2 years and 10 months - or 1035 days (including today.) Come January 12th the blog will be 3 years old (someone really should organize a party.)

So to help us wade through all of our tall tales, announcements, and news I've added Google's new search function to our blog. You'll see it over there in the top right corner of the page.

Now when you want to read that story about Rob, the finger, and the leg tendon you can search for "Rob finger" and relive the memories. Or if you want to check out Dan's new house, type in "Dan moving" and check out his front lawn (now that's some turf to be proud of.)

So search away family, search away. And keep posting.

love pat

Bochsler Family Update

Last week I tried to "encourage" my family to post to this blog. I sent them all TERRIBLE pictures of themselves and threatened to post them here if they didn't post their own. Although they all responded soon enough to my threat, nobody has updated this blog yet. To be fair, this sort of thing is easier for me to do so I'll give a general update on the family. I won't post those nasty pictures just yet, because I'm sure there are some of me floating around and I don't want to start a war. You may remember there are 6 kids, in order of age: Mark, Colleen, Paul, David, Kathleen & Kevin. Hearing it listed like that reminds me of being called for dinner. :) Mom and Dad (Maureen and Al) are both in good health and living in that big house you remember in Ancaster. The house and property itself would look very different to many of you as my Dad's projects have really transformed the place. There are no more big willow trees (and no more treehouse!) :( ...

Mark Simmonds is home!

I just called Fenwick to see how Mark was and i was surprised to see he came home today (Tuesday). Mark had a Angioplasty. He is very tired and happy to be home.
