Kate Lufkin Represents! In Zimbabwe
Hey Joey. We’ve met a few times, I’m Kate Lufkin, Laurie Lufkin’s sister. Your wife also went to high school with my sister Sarah.
Anyway, I just took a trip to Zimbabwe and Mozambique to volunteer at an HIV clinic for a few weeks (but I had some fun while I was there, too!) and Laurie reminded me to bring along my sticker…So, here they are! The first one is me on the campus of Africa University (where I was based out of for teaching. I was considered faculty…wtf??) Same with the 2nd and the 3rd. The 5th and 6th are at Victoria Falls, one of the most incredible things I’ve ever seen in my life…Finally the last one is on a boat cruise I took on the Zambezi river. It was pretty awesome! I saw elephants, crocs, hippos, you name it!
Feel free to use all or none of them, but I thought I’d send them along.
Thanks for your blog, I love it!
Kate

Top 10 ways to have the most fun @ tonight’s BLOCK PARTY ~ The last one in 2012
- Don’t sweat the weather. It will be nice.
- If you want to sit down and eat in a restaurant MAKE A RESERVATION. Here’s a list of restaurants offering al fresco dining (with phone numbers).
- Wear layers (it will be clear, but cooler than you’re used to tonight).
- Bring the family. No need to pay for a sitter. There’s plenty of entertainment for kids.
- MOTHERS: Re-read #3 and don’t complain that you’re cold and want to go home early. Your husband isn’t cold just because he doesn’t have a coat on. Neither are your kids. I don’t want to hear anybody say, “You make me cold just looking at you.”
- Embrace walking. That’s the point. Don’t waste time looking for the closest possible parking space to Main St. It’ll only infuriate you, which isn’t the best way to start off the night. Here’s how I look at it: I can eat more because I’m walking it off!
- If you don’t like the entertainment, walk a little. You’re bound to find something you like. Then come back to where you were. Entertainment at each stage changes every hour. See the entertainment lineup here.
- If your kids don’t like the music you like, send them to Rick Doucette at Kid Town or Daddy O’Keefe in front of Mark Adrian Shoes. See map here.
- If you really must have inside entertainment, go see Rita Chiarelli, Canada’s queen of the blues, LIVE at Cape Ann Community Cinema at 7:30pm (costs $15, but worth it).
- Be prepared to see friends and neighbors you haven’t seen in a while ~ SMILE, you’re at a PARTY!

Holy Family Parish Picnic
Last weekend, Holy Family parish had it’s annual outdoor Mass and picnic at Stage Fort Park. I didn’t get any photos of the outdoor Mass, because I consider it inappropriate (at best) to pull out a camera and take photos while wearing liturgical vestments and concelebrating the service. However, I got some nice photos of the fun that came afterwards. As I am going away on vacation for a week, I will post shots of the different activities in a series of posts.
Today: the men of our local Knights of Columbus cooking and serving a tasty meal!
