First off, I received an email from our friends in Medicine Hat - George and Monik. Last we heard they were planning a driving trip in September to Ontario- to visit here and then another friend near Kingston. Unfortunately, she now has some dental issues and must get repairs at an exorbitant cost. So they have had to cancel their plans, and will not be coming after all.
This morning Mike called from work to say Erin was heading down to Toronto to visit her family for weekend and was stopping in here to bring me some K cups Mike said they apparently had all sorts at work that no one was using and they were going to throw them away so he grabbed them for me. Mostly tea but I love them, and another that sounds nice - raspberry chocolate truffle! I'll let you know what it's like when I try it - but that will not be tonight though. I was working in the yard - trying to cutback the raspberries and clean the patch ready for next spring when she arrived. We had a really nice visit - and it is always a treat to speak with her - she is humorous, and down to earth and a really sensible person. We walked about the yard and garden - she is planting in pots at the side of their house and has a keen interest in such things. We picked some cucumbers, and lettuce for her to take and Harry had just bought some fresh peaches so she took some with her as well.
I was up one of the crab apple trees picking this afternoon. I had to carry the ladder into the neighbour's yard in order to reach some of the overhanging branches. They were not home at the time but I made sure to clean up any fallen apples and bits of branches and twigs I had let fall. I expect that tomorrow we shall be back into the dehydrating business again. Oh dear!
Well have a great weekend all, and please write a message as soon as you win the Lottery $$$$ so we can all rejoice! Take care
