Lynn's Comments: Showing the Patterson’s drive across the country allowed me to draw and write about Canada, which was both fun and entertaining. If I was entertained, I figured my readers would be, too. Many wrote to tell me about their travels here and how much they enjoyed themselves.

Lynn's Comments: In reality, my in-laws lived within walking distance from our home in Ontario. We had all moved from Northern Manitoba to Northern Ontario, so it seemed like a good idea, in the strip, to keep them in the prairies. This way, I could create story lines about visiting them and the cousins there.

Lynn's Comments: This was an opportunity to talk about Canada...without making it seem like a documentary. I have driven and flown across this country several times and there is not one province that I don’t find to be absolutely wonderful!

Lynn's Comments: This is another true story. After this ran, I received a letter from a reader who told me a story: She had been sitting with a friend who was dying and didn’t have much more time to live. Her friend told her that when she died, she would come back as a humming bird and let everyone know she was OK. A few days after the friend passed away, the reader was outside filling her feeder when a humming bird came and hovered right next to her for an extended period of time. Her husband was able to take a photograph. She said it was the most comforting thing imaginable. I still have the photo she sent me.

Lynn's Comments: Because it was such a dramatic story, I felt I had to mention Farley’s death again. Some readers thought it was a dumb idea to insert Farley’s face into the branches of the tree here, but others really appreciated the gesture. No matter what I wrote or drew, there was always a difference of opinion!

Lynn's Comments: We know now that grapes and raisins can be very toxic to dogs, so Edgar had a lucky close call. Everyone please check with your vet to be sure which "people foods" your dog can tolerate!

Lynn's Comments: When my first husband and I moved to Ontario, one of the jobs he had at CHCH TV in Hamilton was as a cameraman on their televised wrestling series. We didn’t have kids at the time so I spent a lot of time at the TeleCentre up on the lighting scaffold watching wrestling!
