Default Canada Day Weekend

The family decided to spend Canada's 144th birthday in small town Ontario. We visited Kemptville to watch the Calnan Canada Day Convoy finish its parade. A quick stop in Kars to visit the S&P Museum was followed by a pizza dinner in North Gower. We watched an incredible fireworks display and then headed for home.

I spent Saturday at home relaxing while Grant decided to do some grounds maintenance. He cleaned out some of the overgrowth in the vehicle park. Grant also moved his rolling frame into the barn to start the assembly process.

I got to spend Sunday morning at the barn. Both Grant and I decided to finish clearing away the foilage that had overgrown most of the vehicle parks and around the shelters. Armed with gas powered whipper-snippers, we cleared away the mutant growth caused by our incredibly wet spring. As the temperature hit 29oC and the humidex pegged, we called it a day around 1PM.

Bob was busy with domestic chores so we didn't see much of him this weekend. If the temperature drops on the weekend, we may get some work done on the trucks. If not, I'll bring some beer to keep us from dehydrating.
