First on the list, a trip east (but still in Manitoba) to a great spot. Splitting logs, attaching a hammock and cleaning the chimney were on the agenda. Notice that I didn't do anything at all except take pictures!
Then it was off to Birds Hill Park, so that these two could experience their first camping trip. They were great campers, and it helped that the weather was perfect. We played games, read stories, did crafts, ate s'mores and popsicles and pancakes, and had lots of beach time. We are looking forward to more camping with the others in the various families.
And the most recent events, two birthdays, one for the youngest in our immediate family (she just turned one) and one for the matriarch of the entire clan, who is turning 88 tomorrow, July 12. We are so fortunate to have the birthday girls (and everyone else) happy and healthy.
And on a side note, we have had hazy skies here, due to the smoke drifting in from Saskatchewan. This has resulted in interesting views of the sun. Here are two from the last couple of weeks.
More news as the summer progresses. Stay cool everyone!
