Things can get backed up when you don't update your blog often enough, so grab a cup of joe. We'll start off with the important news first. 


Congratulations to Kaarina and Dennis Kelly. Yesterday they delivered a 7 lb 6oz little girl named Bristol Patricia. Granddaughter to first timers Granny Kathleen and Grammpy Dan. Yer up next, Steph. 


Sun rise last Friday. 
 

My personal shopper went to town on Friday and the old goat turned 77700 kms.


Later, we had a good bye dinner for Sharon, who had to go back to work. This could be brother, sister, except one of them is BLONDE, and the other one isn't. I wonder what they are scheming?


No show Richie and Leanne's daughter, Addie. 


Richie, Addie, Leanne, Grayden with his back to you and Sharon looking miserable, 'cause she has to go back to work. Come on, some one has to pay for the CPP.



Maggie, Super Jade Osborne, Paul, and Bryan.




Hey Sils, your ducks are still here.


I think that Richie's fly must be down by the way that Grasshopper and Sir Edwin are staring.


The spread.


Raisin pie, sugar pie and strawberry/rhubarb pie.


The sun going down on another awesome Tomiko day.


We had a thunder/hail storm Monday while we were visiting Bedrock. That's the surface of the lake behind the chimney.
 

Hail bouncing off the roof.



Will the video work?


The Loon family.


Itchy Bitchy Richie had a couple of sea cans delivered to the end of his road Monday morning. Plan A was to use a trailer to take the cans to his property 2 klicks in. It was decided that the trailer wasn't stiff enough. Plan B was to put skids under the cans and drag them in.


Plan C was to cut the wheels off a log carrier and weld them to the cans and tow them with the back hoe.


Here we go.


Looking good, so far.


We had got jammed up a couple of times by this time. Tires starting to get a little wonky.


This is actually #2 can. #1 made it to Richie's and cut the wheels off and reweld them to this can. The tires are now flat and half on/half off of the rims, but still rolling.


There are a couple of good hills on the road.


Willie wonky tires.


Home free!



Last evening we visited with the AKA's and Steve and Janine dropped by for a glass of wine.  We haven't seen them for a whole year.




The big deal going on today is the arrival of the Szymanskis. Pot luck at the Lube and Grill this afternoon.


Har, har.
