CATHY STEWART

After working for 32 years as a chemical engineer, Cathy is now retired. While she enjoyed the challenging work and life up north in Thompson, Man., she and her husband Wayne now enjoy full-time cottage life in Bird River, which includes spotting wildlife, boating, fishing and even occasionally crossing the lake to go golfing. Cathy can often be found either teaching or playing duplicate bridge. Retirement has also afforded her the time to travel the world and indulge her passion for photography—check out her great owl pics in this issue’s Critters feature on page 56.
