September 17th., 2007





The official opening of our new library was on Saturday. To be honest, I didn't expect many people to be there, but by the time the ceremony was to begin the place was packed. Could hardly move around. There was a table set up with tea, coffee and a great variety of sweets. All in all it was a great success and a beautiful sunny day to boot.

Yesterday, Rogers friend flew in from Halifax, getting here around supper time. We had a good meal....rice, "fake" meat balls in a pineapple sauce and stir fried veggies. Home made apple pie for desert and a couple of bottles of wine. We spent the evening chatting, drinking wine and listening to music. A very nice evening.

This morning I nearly broke myself up......had the camera in my hand and was going up the steps into the kitchen when I tripped on the top step and went sprawling across the kitchen floor. Did I drop the camera and do damage to it...not likely! When I came to my senses, my arm was up in the air with camera in hand. lol.

Tomorrow night we are having a bit of a party so will be busy preparing things for the event. It should be fun with an eclectic bunch of people. Lots of bantering and arguing about the way of the world I should think. Must try to remember to take some pictures.

A few pictures I've taken this past couple of days.

Fox Sparrow


I'm still taking pictures of this butterfly that's here every day. I'm assuming it's the same one. I emailed the picture to my daughter like this...


And she emailed it back to me like this..lol...

Haha, Laurie's got a great sense of humour!

The meal sounds lovely, maybe the effects of the two bottles of wine hadn't worn off..... but glad the camera was ok then, that would have been a disaster! :D
