A picture is worth a thousand words.........

I have neglected this blog all summer.

I got a nudge from a couple of my support friends ... thanks for thinking of me girls.

I am feeling terrific! Since the Ottawa Race Weekend at the end of May

I have thoroughly enjoyed life. I cancelled my last C-appointment because I did not want to come in from the trailer. The clinic was a bit annoyed with me. Next check up is in October and that should be my "one year".

In June I travelled to Alexandria, Virginia to visit my daughter, her husband and my two grandsons. I had a chance to get "light sabre" training from the boys and our StarWars battle in the park was fun.
Norm and I had all four grandsons at the Water Slides at Mont Cascade in Quebec.
Grandma Heaven.

We bought a canoe this year..... and I totally love paddling. Our lake is small but it has been a perfect place for me to practise.

Here with my grandsons who live in Ottawa.

Our little lake at Renfrew, Ontario.

We have a trailer parked permanently here. I spent just about all of the summer while Norm commuted to Ottawa for work.

I took a bazillion photos of plants and creatures this summer. I would find my subjects in the field books I brought from the library and send photos and narratives to friends and family.

I love the beauty of nature.

Lazing on the dock chatting with my daughter...

This summer was just the tonic I needed.
