A Century of Furniture sales and Camping out...





It was a great to have Mr. Terry Leon, President and CEO of Leon’s Furniture Ltd on the Early Show Friday! Leon's was celebrating their 100th anniversary, and celebrate they did! I hope you had a chance to retrieve one of the many bright yellow environmentally-friendly balloons they released beside their Kentville location...they were filled with coupons ranging from $100 to plasma TV's! Leon's most-importantly made a significant donation to Chrysalis House and the Valley Regional Hospital, as part of a nation-wide initiative to give back to communities all across Canada.

Friday night, was also my first experience of Camp Brigadoon's Camp Out for Kids...and it was a night I'll never forget! With live music provided by Blueberry Grunt, delicious pulled pork provided by Meadowbrook Farm, and entertainment provided by all the teams involved and my fellow Misfits...it was an absolute blast! And the best part, we raised a combined $40,000 for Camp Brigadoon, which is set to begin construction soon!
Also, congrats to everyone who took part in the 1st annual Relay for Life in Windsor! The teams there raised $10,500 towards cancer research!
Well I must get set to sit in front of my television for the rest of the day, and see if Phil Mickelson can make a come-back of a lifetime and win the rain-delayed U.S. Open at Bethpage Black. I hope he wins, and that Ontario's Mike Weir got a new putter, and threw his old one in a pond somewhere. I could have made some of his missed opportunities yesterday.

...until tomorrow...
