October So Far….Dog Sitting, Concert at Massey Hall, Family Wedding and a Trip to Hamilton

It’s been a busy month and we’re only 1/3 of the way through.

Our daughter and daughter-in-law took a trip to Berlin, Germany where Andrea participated in the Berlin Marathon. While they were away we dog sat, Olive. For a dog who doesn’t like to walk we got in quite a few long walks in the neighbourhood.

The day after Andrea and Josie returned from Germany we all went to my nephew’s wedding. My sister and her family travelled from Calgary to be here so it was a bit of a family reunion. Unfortunately our son in London and our daughter in New Brunswick couldn’t join us.

The wedding was beautiful and so much fun. Rose and Patrick were very happy.

Earlier in the week, before the wedding Kevin and I attended the Herbie Hancock concert at Massey Hall. Herbie is 84 years young but jumped on the stage like a 20 year old. What a fantastic concert.

On Friday, Oct. 11 we drove to Hamilton to attend a cross country race hosted by McMaster University. After the race we drove back to the area where our youngest daughter used to live and had a coffee at our favourite cafe. We lucked out and took in the Art Crawl,
