July 23rd 2018
 We are back from our Canadian vacation with our favorite Canadian friends John and Laurie Tamas. They were such wonderful hosts and we all had such a good time. Laurie made sure to order the best weather possible and it proved delightful! The lake water was a perfect temp and I sure enjoyed the water! The trip up and back was uneventful (which I have come to really appreciate!) the drive was very scenic and overall the best Canadian trip I have had. Todd and Beth Ehlenfeldt joined us and we had so much fun together. Laughter is the best medicine after all!!
 The garden is starting to produce well and I love going out and picking our supper. The campground survived without us being worker bees. Phil had plenty of volunteers to pick up our slack. It was a nice break for us. Mom has been over a few times for supper. So glad she can still drive. It makes things so much more convenient for all of us. Kevin and the girls came for a few days over the 4th of July. We swam, went to Irvine park, lite off fireworks, went for icecream for lunch and just hung out. sooo fun!
Garden goodness!!!
