25 Birds!!

Amanda and Shanta are "birders"  so they took us out to look for local birds.  They recorded seeing 25 different birds species.  I think I saw a sea gull!! Well maybe a few more.  It was fun.  We stopped at a local shop "The Lake Lindsay Mall"  - what a quaint little place before going home.  Once we got safely home the clouds opened up with another summer down pour.  It was fine since we were indoors fixing lunch.  Another delicious meal of pilaf, left-over chicken, dahl and fruit salad.

Elaine, I guess there are no palm trees in Canada.

a little refreshment.  Jeanne and Elaine.  Note Elaine's leach bite.  She had to go to the hospital at 5:30 am this morning to get some better antibiotic for it.

Getting ready to eat!!

The people who are fixing dinner have gone off to go grocery shopping and the rest of us are in various states of being comatose.  Too much good food.
