Hartung open house


forgot to post this earlier, we went to the open house
from our neighbours
They'd had a shed fire and had lots of help
now they celebrated the new shed with neighbours and friends


there was some good music by this 17 year old 


We hang out with neighbours for the evening

Fun at the pond

 





last week we had time at the pond with our family


we had a campfire


under threatening clouds


water was warm


we love this place


found out that this works when it rains a little


We were joined by Marc and Corinne
just missing Stephen

Listowel Fair



Our sheep were at the fair, 



Sally is a sheep that likes to be pet


family came by


That's fun!


The bee guy was very interesting


no petting the beef, the cow was protective


Chelsey talked about apples



the sheep had a lot of attention


this was fun too, a virtual farm visit
i saw a mushroom farm

Barrow Bay to Hope Bay

 

we anticipated an almost empty parking lot

but there was 1 group of 13 with 8 cars

we were 9 with 1 vehicle


we saw many mushroom varieties


big waves in Barrow Bay





flat stones, not hard to walk on


Annette's water was leaking, 
so she poored some in a bottle


after the easier part we got bigger stones and lots of green


and lunch with a view


5 of us stopped here and 4 went on


one of the nicest pictures


we hiked 5 more km





up and down with a smile
