port elgin

[8:30 pm] Just got home and am braindead tired, so am going to post a few photos in lieu of a regular Blathering. In the photo above, from left to right: Jeff (crouching), Craig, Parki, Elspeth, Andy, Christine, Doug, Jennifer. No, the deer is not real.

Had a WONDERFUL time in Port Elgin...many thanks to our friend Craig for organizing the event (see photo below) and to his parents for letting us use their house for the weekend.





Below: living room scene. Christine is watching Elspeth jump up off a footstool, Andy's watching Christine, Doug's reading a magazine, Jennifer is wandering out from the kitchen, Jeff and Parki are chopping things in the kitchen. The atmosphere in this photo is exactly what it was the entire weekend: very laid-back, relaxed, comfortable, low-stress. I napped, read a bunch more of American Gods by Neil Gaiman.





As I mentioned in Blatherchat, I did finally get to try a Krispy Kreme. It was pretty good but I didn't find it spectacularly better than Tim Horton's, maybe because it was a day old and was nuked in the microwave.

More on Port Elgin later this week. Hope you all had a great weekend!

And hey, check out this story by Reid's and Luisa's youngest son, Ronnie.
