Upheaval in our house today.

Why! you might ask.   All of the furniture is in rooms where it should not be, the guest bedroom, my sewing studio, garage and balcony.    Why......we are having the carpets cleaned.   We will be in this mess for 24 hours, so cannot get much done today.

The weather forecast improved around noon, so we had our lunch and decided to go out in the convertible.  We headed for a border town and sat alongside of the river which separates the U. S. and Canada.  We watched pleasure boats of all shapes and sizes, some going fast and others just taking their time.   Swimmers floated down in front of us, carried along with the current.   A large freighter passed by heading out into the lake.  This one looked at if it was not carrying any cargo, as it was high in the water.   Time for dinner and we had fish and chips from a chip wagon.   The fillet of fish was huge with very little batter, just the way I like it.  The chips for crisp and not greasy at all, however, there were way too many for us to eat.  We sat a little longer but then decided it was time to start for home, arriving at the door at 9:s0 p.m.  A great day out.  It may not sound too exciting to most people, but we enjoyed getting out and seeing some different scenery. 

Dinner tonight not sure at this moment, still plenty of time.  Could be burgers on the BBQ.

It is very hot and humid today, heat warnings have been issued, so do not plan to do much outside.

  1. Sounds like a perfect day out. I have always wanted a convertible especially for our mild winter days. Summer, not so much - it's usually too hot and windy.
