The Winkler, Altona, and Gretna delegates deciding where MCI would be located was dysfunctional, votes were disputed, ending in 2 locations being built. The Altona contingent stole the Gretna school under cover of darkness in 1908. THEY STOLE AN ENTIRE BUILDING.

Mennonites assemble at the loss of MCI in Gretna. I have stories about my time there (including a former dean chasing some Altona boys off the roof one night and tackling one of them to the ground), but my favourite is found in the history book, die Schule Muss Sein...

Took a little drive to Winnipeg Beach, #Manitoba today. Happy to see someone bought the Breakwater and turned into a legit coffee shop. And I had a fantastic peanut butter latte. Some pastries available and feature drinks. Cool spot!

Suffering from smoke allergies right now? See the advice I'm boosting from my NP who also suggests showering before bed to get the particles off your skin.
Carry a nasal spray with you to use whenever you go inside.

Flight delayed 8 hours. I get it. But the delayed another 24 hours. Cost - 1/2 day conference fees + hotel night. But you can only claim for the flight, food, and a hotel in the city you get stuck in. And you can't claim for the 24 hour portion, because it's the same ticket number.
