The summer was an amazing time started it off with Penny and David’s Summer Garden Party and then off to the “Rock” NL to do some artwork and be inspired by the ocean, the land and the people.  We arrived in Ottawa on Monday and were busy getting ready for our Unifor 2016 convention, we had three sessions with the Unifor members and it was an honour to play for the convention.  There were over 2000 members in attendance over the week of August 21 – 25.  We had quite a few new songs to learn and vacation or not we skyped our practice or used the cell phone with archaic speakers to work through our tunes.  Here are some of the pics and video of our rehearsals enjoy!
