The count- down is on. You probably think I am talking about Christnias. Wrong. I am referring to the season that has become a big part of many Canadian lives. It is the snowmobile season'. Yes, on Sunday morning before the sun made its appear ance, a film of snow covered the vehicles in my driveway and the grass ail around. Hubby has pulled out the Polaris snowmobile bags from the basement and has taken inventory of snowmobile cloth- ing and paraphenalia needed for the coming season. He has worked diligently on preparing his snowmobile trail- er and snowmobiles for what he hopes will be a long, wonderful snowy winter. Over the last few days, at the mere mention of a cold front moving in or a possibility of snow falling, hubby and my son-in-law park themselves in front of the television to catch every weather update. When my husband got bit by the snowmobilities bug he became excited about winter in a way that small children look forward to toboganning and snowball fights after school. He is like a big kid. Hubby works hard all week long and plays hard on week- ends when he gets a chance to snowmobile. At first I had a difficult time remembering that my Polaris Indy Trail was not to ever be called a 'skidoo'. Whenever I committed this unpardonable sin hubby and his friends would nearly skewer me to the spot with looks of disgust. I would be reminded to call my machine a 'sled' or a 'snow- mobile'. Men are real touchy about things like that. My friend Mary and I often accompany hubby and Mary's husband Ralph on Poker Runs or weekend snowmobile runs. Hubby and Ralph want to write to Polaris, Choko or one of their other highly respected snowmobiler's gurus and find Sr. Cees News We had 28 Sr. Cees at our October meeting and card party. A turkey dinner at 12 noon is planned for our Nov. 14 the meeting with euchre after- wards. Also on Nov. 25 at 10:00 a.m. the Sr. Citizens Complex and Sr. Cees will host the United Sr. Citizens of Ontario zone 42 meeting at the Complex. Many Seniors issues will be discussed. Card winners on the 10th were: Gladys Gamsby - 71, Minnie Taylor - 70, Bill Grady and Dora MacDonald tied with 69. Low - May Tabb, Minnie Taylor had the Bingo prize. out if the companies can work on inventing an I.V. drip for hungry sledders because Mary wants to stop and eat every five minutes on the trail. Of course, for me, hubby and Ralph would like to find a catheter for snowmobilers because they say I want to stop for a washroom break every five minutes. These guys love spending the day on the trails with Mary and I. They just have trouble admit- ting it. But we know they do, why else would they keep dragging us off in to the bush and keep losing us. We're sort of like the fish that got away. At the end of the day our male heros crack open a few beer and tell the tale of the wives who kept coming back no matter how lost they were. Mary and I just smile. She cooks up a double burger while I head to the washroom for another pit stop. Yep, the girls can hardly wait for this snowmobile season to end. I meant start! Really I did. Toastmasters Bowmanville Toastmasters entered the spirit of Halloween at their meeting of October 29/96 as they debated the res- olution of "Halloween Should Be Abolished". Toastmaster Irene Konzelmann and Mike Sullivan supported the resolution while Toastmasters Nancy Barnes and Denise Marek expressed the contrary point of view. All participants demonstrat- ed their positions with research. The spontaneity which marked the exchanges had the assembly in paroxysms of laughter. The high calibre and earnestness of the presenters left the judges in a quandary unable to determine a decisive victor they concurred that the hard fought battle was a draw. Toastmaster Marilynn Dow chiefjudge maintained the sus- pense before she confessed the tie. She congratulated the deba- tors on a job well donc and thanked them for an evening of splendid entertainment.
