Mon Jun 16 - Fri Jul 4th - Fifty point.. friends and family
June 16th through July 4th
|
Early morning at the cottage |
We had a wonderful say at Fifty Point and have re-booked our return on August 18th so we will be back in time to see our self adopted niece (Vanessa and her lovely hubby and daughter Hung Bin and Ruby) .
The bright spots of our couple of our few weeks were:
- It felt like home again
- Janice enjoyed the first weekend with Hillary and a few university of Guelph friends up at Hillary and Ted's cottage... canoeing, eating, swimming and drinking were the order of the weekend... great fun. Returning to Toronto we joined Derek and Ted at the condo for an amazing meal and great company!
- Spent a fair bit of time with Braden and Grant while we were home. SO good to be with them.
- Close to Diane, so we could see her a few times while we were in the area.
- Got to see lots of friends. Dinner with Pat and Doug - pub night with Nick, Angela, Al and Tina and Braden - Brother Nick and Kathy came to Fifty Point for dinner - lunch with Tiina (2) and her son Mychael - lunch in Burlington with Janice's book club pal Patt E. who looked after our truck so well while we were away.
- Sorted out various appointments and Janice had a good check up at the dermatologist. YEY!!
- GREAT
Canada Day weekend at the camp with Braden and Grant, it felt like a mini-vacation
away, watching the various firework displays across the lake from Fifty Point was magical. Braden and Grant set up a tent on our spot and that worked out really well... playing guitar and chilling by the fire outside was a special memory.
- Trip up to Guelph with Diane to see Bernadette, Grayson and Preston.
- On Jul 1 we all (B, G, D and J) went to the Marina for breakfast... excellent (especially interesting was the guy with 6 egg breakfast!.. apparently a regular!!!)
|
Chilling by the fire |
- Spent a planning day and used Di’s laundry and internet for booking the rest of the summer... decided finally that we would go East for a month or so.. PEI and Cape Breton.

Great family times |
