So what have we been up to? Highlights include two trips to Ontario, one at the beginning of April for my dad's 60th birthday (a surprise for him). Between my birthday, his, and my mom's retirement we had a week of festivities, including some mighty fine cakes. I was a great, family filled visit (we even got in a few days in Niagara Falls), but it was good to get home and detox.
The second trip was a quick long weekend early June to Toronto to catch Leonard Cohen - definately worth the trip, and one of the best shows we had ever seen. We were also able to catch a family reunion while there, and experience a heat wave.
July brought the return of the Tall Ships. A lot of work (there is a reason they only come every 3 years), but a lot of fun. The crews are great to work with, and they really enjoy their visit here. Mother Nature cooperated again, for the most part, with sunny weather, once the fog burned off each day.
Immediately following the departure of the Tall Ships we were into a wedding celebration. Next weekend we are off to Whistler for the weekend to celebrate S's mom's 70th birthday - we are looking forward to the fun weekend away.
We are hoping August will bring some camping opportunities.
