June 16 to June 22

Sunday June 16

Father’s Day. We went to 10:30 Mass and afterwards had breakfast with Lou and Carmel at BH. Sharon the only one to wish her dad Happy Father’s Day. Where did I go wrong? Worked on Thank you cards.

Monday June 17

Rain still. BH closed so had Keurig coffee. Finished the thank you cards and got them ready to mail. Bought some hanging baskets at Foodland.

Tuesday June 18

Lori drove her new SUV to work today and John made a special spot for her to park. We mailed the cards and went for lunch at BH. Finally got caught up on my Blog! I did five posts today.

Wednesday June 19

Finished packing the camper except for last minute food. Lori not here today. The water pump in Nellie is not working so John took her to DJ’s but they say it needs to be replaced and they can’t do it till next week. Went to the Anglican Church “Thank You Tea”. Not as good a turnout s they had hoped due to the United Church Strawberry Dinner.

Thursday June 20

Finished packing and had lunch at BH. Hit the road at 1:30. Lots of delays due to construction on hwy 7. Had fries in Marickville and got to the campground around 7 pm. We set up the canopy for shade but we have a nice flat site (#87) with a large tree.

Friday June 21

Carole C’s birthday. Slept till 9 when our neighbour decided to cut his grass. CW dropped the boys off at noon but returned home to go to Taylor’s grade eight grad. We walked to the beach (after I made my salad) with Philip and Alexandre and got our legs wet. Water was cold. Had ice cream at the snack bar and we went back to our campsite and had a nap. John W had arrived and set up so we visited with him till Sharon & TJ arrived. Christopher had organized dinner and we waited till Lori’s Mom Anne arrived. It was potluck with CW and Lori doing the pulled pork. John and Sharon buns and we brought a vegetable macaroni salad. Anne also brought salads. We had a campfire at CW’s but I gave up around 9, as the bugs were bad.

Saturday June 22

Sharon invited me to go to Lancaster so we went and I got a gift for Taylor and one for Carole as I had forgot the one I had at home. Also got some stocking stuffers and a large cone of black string that is good for Kumihimo braids. TJ had gone and got his sailboat and him and AJ had a sail but there wasn’t much wind. When we returned I went to make lunch when John W invited us to go to the Anchor. Lunch got put away real quick and off we went. Had a wrap and a draft beer. TJ and AJ had gone to check out a sailboat for sail and met us at the pub to report that it was in good shape. We returned with Sharon and John W, TJ and AJ went to buy the boat. I worked on some jewellery and Kumihimo. We heated up sausages for supper and went to a campfire at CW’s. It had rained on and off all day but wasn’t cold. The rain had stopped and the bugs were gone so we sat up till midnight.
