…walking to lawn bowling I came across these beauties

…It’s been a pretty rainy summer so far but the last few days have set records
I don’t mind rain, especially when it falls at night but when it comes down in buckets during the day and day after day, it starts to get depressing. Today I think we set a record for the 5th highest day for accumulation in the last 100 years. Luckily our basement stayed dry but many people weren’t as lucky and to top it off the power went off across the city. We only had to endure an outage for 1 1/2 hours but my daughter was without power for over 6 hours. For awhile our backyard looked like a lake but when I got around to taking photos there were only a few puddles left.
…a lovely weekend at the cottage
I arrived on Friday and the day started out lovely, warm and only partially cloudy. As I walked along the beach I could tell that there was a storm brewing.

…on our way to see where our son, Brendan, works
Our son works at the V&A in London but he recently was given the job of overseeing the construction of the new warehouse and facility in East London. We weren’t allowed inside but we did see the outside and we passed numerous works of street art and the London Olympic site.
After lunch we made our way to the new facility but it was very hot that day and I slowly followed our tour guide. I was happy to get into air-conditioned buildings along the way.
…after making sure that someone I know was going to be close by
It’s getting harder and harder to find people to go up the cottage with me to open up but I have to admit that It’s actually getting easier and easier. I’m more worried about falling and not having someone close by to check up on me.
Of course the weekend I chose to open it rained all weekend. I did, however, manage to set up the BBQ, put out the deck furniture, rack the leaves and sweep the the deck. Inside the cottage there was very little to do. For some reason, the mice stayed away this winter (hooray!) so I just had to wipe down the dust and put away the groceries that I brought along. Luckily I had a new book with me so I managed to get a good start on that.
Naturally, the sun came out today when I was getting ready to leave. The next visit will be easier and I will actually start the refrigerator. This time I just kept my food on icepacks. Maybe I’ll even go for a swim but I’m sure the water is freezing.

Have you ever typed in a number in the search box when you’re looking at your photos in Photos or wherever you store your shots? It’s quite interesting to see what pops up. Here are some of the photos with 146.

We’re coming up to our 49th wedding anniversary and I still get a thrill of going out on dates and travelling with Kevin.
