Saying Goodbye - - -


- - - to good friends, Beautiful lake with beautiful sunsets, Loons, birds of many kinds, walks on the country road, picking wildflowers along the way -looking for deer, Eastern Strawberries for Strawberry shortcake - and picking them ourselves!, - Corn on the cob and Wonderful Eastern Tomato's in August - -

We're getting packed! cleaning and throwing away like crazy!

Last Thursday, Friends Joan and Ray Sharp - took us on an excursion to Toronto to find Mt. Dennis - where I spent many a happy holiday as a youngster - -! We found it! and the house on Victoria Blvd. ! We would never have found it without the help of these friends! What a trip down Memory lane!

Another evening we had a most delicious dinner with the Selby family - how kind of them -- and then a yummy dinner with Ev Schill and her son Jim , dtr in law , Joy and grandson , JUstin - -and finally , last Saturday, dinner with the McManns- Orv and Margo. Delicious! all with nice visiting to boot! How we will miss them all!

One evening the sunset treated us to a "lake of fire" -- (above) - - as always - I took LOTS of pictures! None of them showing the real life beauty - but the best I could do.


The moving company will come next Monday - and we will leave here on Tuesday or Wednesday. Then on to another chapter of our lives -- nearer to family, and doctors and with less work - on a small lot and small abode in "Show Low, AZ" for summers. We are very thankful for the 8 summers of having "our dream" - a cottage by a lake - - Beautiful Round Lake, Ontario!
