A few days ago we had Jo-Anne's dad and her brother over for a BBQ at the Roebuck park, "up on the hill," as we are calling it; as that park is about 1000 feet higher than the level of Meaford and the bay. We've slowly built the patio by buying a few stones at a time and it is beginning to look pretty good. Good old BBQ burgers, potato salad, and a sauerkraut dip recipe we got from Paulette ... yum!





Today though we moved the Flying Scotsman down to the Meaford Memorial Park for a couple of days to enjoy the sunshine on the beach. The sunshine was yesterday as we arrived but today it has been rainy and about 60 all day; still pleasant in the breaks between the showers. We are hoping the sun will return tomorrow to warm us up a bit and then we'll head back up the hill on Friday.






And you ask, "how do you keep track of what day it is now that you are retired?" Well, it helps to have a clock that shows the day of the week with the red hand below ... of course watched over by the ever present Mr. Chicken.
