Happy Birthday to Emil- 61 and Holding!

Emil spent his whole day driving the trolley down at Lakeside Park for his birthday. This was his wish come true. He is a volunteer for the trolley society and after some lengthy training, he can now both drive the trolley and be the brakeman. In fact with two on board, they take turns at each job, driving from Lakeside PArk to the Prestige and back again, picking up and dropping off passengers as they go. Once you have a day ticket ( $3.00 for adults and $2.00 for kids over 6, free if they are under 6 and a family pass for the day is $8.00), you can get on and off at your desired location, stay at the mall or the park and return to where your car is parked
- all with your one ticket for the day . Emil loves the fact that he gets to meet visitors from all over the world and he loves the look on the kids faces as they climb on board for their first trolley ride. Today he had Kendra and Virginia and Joyce as passengers and he even saw Kenny and Ginny driving by.. so keep your eyes open for the trolley and give it a wide berth...especially if Emil is the conductor!
After work, I picked up Emil and we drove out to the BBI ( Balfour Beach Inn) and was joined by our neighbours for a get together and dinner. It was also Deb, our neighbour's birthday, so there was lots of teasing going on.
After a good dinner, we all came back to our house for chocolate birthday cake and icecream and lovely flapper pie that Francis made especially for Emil! It was delicious too!
