More rain overnight
and on and off all day. Packed up and went to Church at 10:30 in Kingston at a
Church near the camp ground. Left for home with a stop at the outlet store.
Bought 2 white winter tops and a yellow short sleeve and a white long sleeve
cotton blouse for $35.00 tax included. Another stop at A Taste of Country for
frozen food and a blue bird for me. Went for coffee at The Burger Hut and it
was raining there but stopped at the stop lights and did not rain at our house!
Watched the Olympic Closing Ceremonies. I enjoyed them.

pool. Made some lists for packing.

Cooler day with lots
of cloud. After work went for coffee and then to Cobourg with rain. Had a
lovely supper at Gayle's with Diana and Michael. Rain stopped and we went to
the concert. Lots of great music including a melody of tunes from Joseph and
the Multicoloured Dreamcoat.

Did lots of packing
and we were ready to hit the road by 10:30. We met Joan and hit the road for
Bancroft. Sun and cloud but no rain. Cooler. Our campsites were not together
but we had sewers so that was good. I made my potato and pasta salads. Joan
cooked supper and we had an early night.

A beautiful sunny day
with a bit of wind. Slept in till 10 am. Joan cooked a great breakfast. Joan
and I went for a swim in Marble Lake and John played life guard. Salads and
cold meat at our camp site for lunch and back for a second dip in the
lake. Pierre and Evelyn came for supper
and we had a wonderful visit. Sat outside with candle light till 10 pm.

Sun and cloud and very
windy. Packed up and went to Foodland in Bancroft and then a quick stop in
Cardiff for ice and we were at Brian and Dorothy's for lunch. Joan camped at
her own property and we were up by the cabin. No one was home when we arrived.
After lunch I made my coleslaw and Christopher and all his family arrived
around 4. Matthew and family and Jonathan and family and Brian and Dorothy came
shortly after. Supper was leftovers enjoyed by the C W and family and Aunt
Joan. We had a bonfire and AJ and Patrick entertained us with campfire songs.

A lovely sunny day
with some clouds and wind. Sean and family minus Charlie arrived at 2 am and
camped at Joan's property. Philip and CW cooked bacon and eggs for everyone
with lots of helpers at Joan's place. CW then ferried us in a couple of trips
to the lake for a swim. Matthew and Beth with Aiden and River joined us and
Jonathan and Holly with Jaslyn, Jace and Hudson, came too. It was very
refreshing and not everyone hit the water. I was the first one in. Joan, Sean,
Stephen, Christopher, Lori, Philip, Taylor, Alexandre, Patrick, Jonathan,
Jaslyn, Jace, Matthew and Aiden were the brave ones. River and Hudson paddled
at the edge and played in the sand. On his second trip back to the house CW
found a guitar on the side of the road. We all sat around the fire pit and
Cathy and her sister Sue (didn't stay for supper), Phil and Jackie with their
daughter-in-law and two grandchildren, Dick and Diane and Joseph joined us.
Brian barbequed hamburgers, Joan and I contributed salads and others looked
after condiments and dessert. Supper was great and a cake was brought out for
Matthew and Beth's and Jonathan and Holly's Anniversaries which are both in
August. We had another bonfire and a few fireworks were set off before dark for
the little ones. After dark Matthew did a great fireworks display for us all.
