hot august days

 A young waiter serving drinks festooned with colourful umbrellas would be da bomb… alas, my quickly warming bottle of G2 gatorade will have to do. It is blue so it nicely matches the decor (ha ha). (note to self: buy only blue gators)



Our first ‘conversation set’ guests arrived Wednesday mid-afternoon. Mom and Dad settled onto the couch in the sliver of shade cast by the house. We chatted all afternoon, silenced only by thick bacon and tomato sandwiches dripping with mayonnaise. Some of the ingredients from our garden. I should have made bread!



Yesterday we went to the PetValu for a life jacket for Lupa… she has decided that walking along the edge of the pool is a cool thing to do. I’m terrified that she’ll slip in and drown. She’s worn it a few times today and was initially quite certain that she couldn’t walk. She’ll figure it out quickly I think.



Today we put up the old sunshade from Presqu'ile. Aside from the zipper on the bag sticking, it’s still in good condition and will create a bit of shade until we get a proper gazebo. It will also help us figure out if 10x12 is the right size.


We made final payment on the cruise… fingers crossed that covid has been vanquished.



Awesome!
