Busy Weekend

It was a busy weekend for us. Toronto on Saturday, Orangeville and Peterborough on Sunday then home to Bancroft today. It was wonderful to see family and friends and take a break from our construction project.



Our trailer was full coming home. New propane stove in the front, wooden pallets in the middle and two toilets and two shower bases in the back.





Of course with all the running around we were hungry so stopped here for lunch. It was cholesterol overload but we don't eat this way very often.





I love sweet potato fries and these were delicious. Hopefully a small portion shared wasn't too damaging.


One thing that did surprise me was how tired I felt after eating lunch. Thanks to Marvin and Annie and Leanne and Jamie we had great sleeps at both Toronto and Peterborough, so I think the body just wanted sleep because of the heavy digestion needed after lunch. I couldn't even finish driving home.


Tomorrow it's back to work on the house and Wednesday the chickens arrive. 


Thanks for stopping by.

  1. Yeah chickens! What are the skids for? Did you have to pay for them?

    1. The skids were free. We are always on the lookout for more. Art has come up with a great way to store our wood. He uses skids to create cribs which hold about half a cord of wood. We are able to pick them up with the bobcat and drop them close to the back door for easy winter use! Smart guy your dad.
