60 Wonder Years


Happy Anniversary to my Mom and Dad, Audrey and Bob Smith.
What a great night we had at our special family dinner at Spencer's on the Water in Burlington.
Fellow diners please forgive our loudness! But how often do your celebrate 60 years of marriage?
Three generations from 7 to 87, from as far away as Oakville and Australia smiling and laughing and re-connecting all night long...probably a thousand photos taken inside and outside the restaurants, and the photo session (s) continued long after th sun went down over Burlington Bay (Hamilton Harbour?)
How lucky we are, to have each other and enjoy each other so much!

It's been a year since I waded back into TV land to launch "Always Good News" with my husband/producer/director Dave Wilson on CTS TV.

Upcoming guests to watch for: TV trailblazer Dini Petty, W Network's Jane Lockhart, and the man of 4000 voices L.A.'s Pat Fraley (he's the voice of Cousin It and the Ninja Turtles!)
Watch for my series "Good News from Greece" as we visit the Acropolis, Santorini and Mykonos; the story fom the Mary Rose, King Henry VIII's battleship from Portsmouth, England, the next chapter in the Hamilton and Scourge War of 1812 sunken warships and from London, England, interviews with the stars of the sequel to Phantom of the Opera, Andrew LLoyd Webber's Love Never Dies.
