Port Stanley, Ontario, Sunday 2024-10-06
« on: October 01, 2024, 01:16:45 »
Hi everyone,
Dave Russell is a Pagoda enthusiast in Port Stanley, on the north shore of Lake Erie, about 30km south of London in southwestern Ontario. I can't find Dave on these Forums, so I'm not sure he's a member. He hosted a really fun event a few years ago (see post with photos on 2020-11-10 in the "Photo Gallery" forum) and has invited everyone to a drive through the village, ending with a barbeque at his house. Folks from SE Michigan or NW Ohio might want to come out. Meet at Little Beach at 16:00 on Sunday, October 6, if you can join us.

We really miss Dieter's enthusiasm in these parts. This will be our first event without him.

Five Pagodas gathered in Port Stanley. We drove around town together a bit, took a lot of photos, and then had a nice barbecue at Dave Russell's house overlooking Lake Erie.

Left to right: Dave, Hugh, Peter and Dianne, Dan, Ed Muth. The sand was really blowing on the beach.

Video is now posted here https://peter.jedicke.ca/D230SL/2024-10-06PagodasatDave'shouse.mp4
(For the geeks among us, the reason for the delay was that my camera recorded the video with the HEVC codec -- which it turns out my Google Chrome browser couldn't play! So I hope that converting the mp4 file to the H.264 codec means you can all watch the video now.)
