Mark and Brenda on the grand tourThe August long week end was one of more visits amidst mixed weather. Laura, Greg, Barb and I went up on Sunday. Mark and Brenda joined us for the day. We sat on the dock, just relaxing and chatting most of the afternoon away. Greg entertained us with some classical guitar pieces. You would never know he is the lead singer in a heavy metal band in Toronto from his playing. Mark and I went out for a short attempt at fishing but they weren't biting.
Once again, we were treated by our guests to a delicious meal.
On Monday, Alan, Andrea and Cailin came up for the day. We played board games and celebrated Barb's birthday together. The guests brought the birthday cake - yummy black forest cake. Now Barb has a new tennis racquet too, so we'll be able to work off that cake soon.
On Tuesday, we witnessed the biggest downpour we have ever seen at the lake. After loading up the car to come home after lunch, we had to wait around as the rain was so heavy there was no way we could have travelled in that. I was concerned that the road might wash out and we wouldn't be able to get out. But while the road was rough, we made it home by supper time. There has been so much rain up there that the road will need some repairs.
