Friendly Friday Photo Challenge – Day Trip
….thanks to Manja for co-hosting this week’s Friendly Friday Photo Challenge
A few weeks ago my son and I took a day trip to Sparrow Lake Camp in Gravenhurst. Our daughter and her family are living up there for the summer and it was our only opportunity for Brendan to see his twin sister before returning to London, England.
The staff was busy getting the camp ready for the first group of boys and girls who arrived earlier this week. We enjoyed a day of hiking and playing and some of the braver souls went for a swim.
Kammie’s Odd Ball Photo Challenge – July 4, 2019
….thanks to Kammie for hosting the Odd Ball Challenge
You can find all kinds of odd things in the sand and sometimes your 3 1/2 year old granddaughter asks you to take some odd ball photos of her snack and of her unusual attire upon her head.

Which Way Photo Challenge – June 27, 2019
…hiking around Sparrow Lake Camp
Last week our son and I drove up to Sparrow Lake to visit Brendan’s twin sister and her family who are living at the camp for the summer.
On our way home we stopped at Weber’s for dinner. We parked the car on the west side of the highway and crossed over on the pedestrian bridge.

The Colours of the Pride 5K Race
….today our son, daughter and daughter-in-law all took part in the Pride 5k Race
There is probably no race more colourful than the one that takes place during Pride Week here in Toronto. It was a beautiful day with lots of sunshine, warm temperatures and colourful decorations and runners.
All three of our children did very well. Of the three Andrea arrived first at just over 22 minutes.
Brenda came in next in just over 24 minutes. Not bad considering he hadn’t trained in over two months and only had four hours of sleep the night before.
Josie wanted to break 35 minutes and came in at just over 33 minutes. Congratulations to all of them for a job well done.
Next year I promised I would do the run with them. I better start training now. I’d be happy to break 45 minutes.
Why Three Year Olds Love the Crazy Uncle
….maybe it has something to do with the fact that they can be as goofy as the three year old
Our granddaughter doesn’t get to see her uncle Brendan very often but when she does he makes sure that he gives her his undivided attention. Yesterday was no exception when we drove up to Sparrow Lake to visit Brendan’s twin sister and her family. From the moment we arrived he was placing banana peels on her head, swinging her in the air, playing pretend sword fighting with sticks, playing with balls and doing cannon balls into the lake. Here are a several examples of the two of them at play.
