Back From The Wild
It was a peaceful five days just hanging out listening to the birds, watching the chipmunks play and waiting for the hummingbirds to visit. They didn't, it was too cold and rainy. Out of five days I think it rained of and on for three of them. It was also cold, in fact the coldest July 1st long weekend in recent memory. The temperatures rarely went above 15 Celsius and this morning we woke up to a chilly 4 c, brrr...
Nevertheless, I did get some knitting done. These will be socks someday soon, as soon as I can decide on a pattern. I started and ripped back three times and still haven't made up my mind. It's pretty yarn though. There was some more knitting but I'll put that on my knitting blog tomorrow.
Meanwhile, the boys (Steve invited a friend and his son) were out fishing just about every day, all day and brought home dinner every night. They even cooked it and I did pretty much nothing except sit with my foot propped up. I sure knew how to milk it...
The star of the weekend, Michael caught the biggest fish. Not bad for a 6 year old...
And my foot...seventeen more days and counting. I can hardly wait.

And you didn't have to look at trash piling up. Good for you! You deserve to be waited on for awhile.
It's been cold and rainy here too.
Yay for Michael! Look at that smile on his face. Great pic.
Rudee, I don't know what happened to summer this year but I guess the weather is a blessing in disguise for the garbage piles. Day 16 of the strike. Our neighbourhood is pretty tidy.
Chrys, Michael has a great smile and he was so happy that day. The fish was delicious too.
