Time is Flying

 Here we are over a week into August already. We are currently in Tillsonburg,  Ontario at Erics for 10 days. We arrived on the 5th and are heading home on the 15th. I had a great day out with my three oldest grand kids. They are growing so fast! Kingston towers over all of us! The kids had a great day together at St Jacobs market and out for icecream with Kristie, Brooke and myself.

Tomorrow is a family barbeque at my sister, Pat's and celebrating Kristie's 40th birthday.

I heard tomatoes weren't going to be available until the end of next week but as luck would have it, they are ready early and I am able to bring my two bushels home as planned. They are only $30 a bushel (32 quarts) so we will be enjoying stewed tomatoes all winter! I should also have enough room for a 50lb bag of fresh sweet corn....woohoo!!!

Back at home, Chris Colbourne has been hard at work landscaping my back hill into two terraces with rock walls. I'm excited to get back home to see it! He does fantastic work!







The shed Eric built is almost complete, just the inside left which we will work on when we return home.

I have new neighbors that moved into Sandy and Lise's house. Chuck, Marie, Deacon and Edie Orser. A very nice young family so I have lucked out again! Deacon and Edie remind me so much of my grandbabies,  Jaxx and Scarlett! It's so cute when they peek around the hedges to see if Frankie and I are sitting on the porch and then they run up the hill to sit and visit. 

Today we are heading out for a cruise in the T Bird for a little adventure, just taking it easy and enjoying our vacation.

I'll be back with updates when we get home to New Brunswick. 😀❤️
