    Hi. I was torchbearer #42 yesterday, running along 1st St. from in front of Boondocks to 2nd. Lloyd Robertson from CTV lit my torch. It was so fun to meet you all, chat and get to share the torch with you. In fact all my fellow torchbearers on the bus agreed that was one of the most special parts. I hope you all enjoyed getting to see the torch. It was so amazing to carry the torch and participate in the Olympics in some way. It was truly a once in a lifetime moment. It all went by so fast, it’s still a blur. Unfortunately that meant I didn’t get any photos of me with the torch actually lit. If anyone happened to get one/some and would be willing to share it/them, I would really appreciate it. Please email them to susietorchbearer@gmail.com. Thanks so much.
