Downtown Toronto



Toronto, Ontario

Steve and I were in Toronto for the weekend attending a fitness conference and tradeshow. It was a short weekend...we got there Friday afternoon and left Sunday morning. We did get to do a little site seeing. We went on a double decker bus and toured most of the downtown area and then we went out on Ontario Lake for another tour.


I didn't realize how big Toronto is....huge and a ton of people everywhere! We went up in the CN Tower...apparently the 2nd tallest structure in the world. It took us over an hour of standing in line to get to the "Outlook Area", so of course once we got there we sat in the bar and had a drink before we had to stand in line and go back down again. I think if we had to do it again, Steve would pass on that little adventure!

Pre-sale Site



Yes, this is where I sit every day waiting for people to come in and sign up for a membership. They should start sheet rocking by the end of this week, so within the next week it will look a lot different.

Luxury Living

You gotta love the kitchen table...only one chair! If you come to visit we will be going out to eat!
I got the pictures to upload! So what do you think? Do you love those chairs? Hopefully we can look back at this and say this is how we started out.

Lisa's New Blog

OK....I am not really sure how all of this works, but I am sitting in Winnipeg by myself...there is nothing on TV, I have already gone for a walk, checked my emails, done the dishes (I only have paper plates and cups, so that was easy), etc., so I thought I would create a blog.

I returned to Winnipeg this morning after a nice weekend at home. Stacy and George came to GF on Friday night and we sat outside on the deck and ordered lavosh from Southgate and had a few drinks...we had a nice time.

We went to Bemidji on Saturday to deliver some more of Ariel's belongings for her new apartment. I think...no I know she has more things in her apartment than I do!! Steve and I had lunch with my mom and dad, took Ariel grocery shopping, and headed back to GF.

There was a holiday in Canada today so there was not much activity at the construction site....so I figured I should have a holiday also since I am in Canada. We started pre-sales last week and I signed up our first 2 members. That was exciting! We have not done any advertising yet...our first one goes out in the paper on Thursday....so hopefully we will get some action from the ad.

I was trying to add some pictures to my blog page, but I keep getting an error when I try to upload the pictures....so any fellow bloggers that know what I might be doing wrong, I would appreciate any feedback.
