Went to 10:30 Mass. Still hot. Afterwards we went for breakfast at Burger Hut and shared a table with Ron & Italia. It was nice to catch up on our busy lives.  On the way home we visited Harry and Carole and had a glass of wine.

Still hot. no grass. The yard looks like a desert. The poor plants are dying even the trees are starting to shrivel up! There has been a water ban for over a month now. We went to Tom & Joyce's in the evening to celebrate Laurie's birthday. They leave for their holiday in Italy on Friday.

Meghan and I went to a new Bead store called M.D.G. Beads Inc. 6035 Prince of Wales Dr. North Gower. She had very good prices. Then we went to McBead for more goodies. Meghan had a sore throat so we left just before lunch. Tried to go to Ikea but traffic was crazy so we headed towards Westport. Stopped for a lovely lunch in Richmond and stopped at a few Garage Sales got a blue shelving unit. Ended up in Perth and booked into the Motel. Went to Giant Tiger and walked around downtown. John walked across the street from the Motel and got us Big Mac's for supper. Watched the opening Ceremonies of the Paralimpic games.

Checked out and went across to MacDonald's for breakfast. Stopped at more Garage Sales and I got a beautiful wash basin and jug set made in Dresden England. Blue and white of course! Got to Westport and did the rounds. Got some books at the Library. Not many bargains to be had. After lunch we headed for home. Arrived around 4 and unpacked and went to Mass at 5.
