On September 17^th my Dad celebrated his 94^th birthday.  That’s old!  He and my mother still live in the home they’ve shared since 1970.  I must confess there are times I wish they were in a senior’s residence so someone could keep an eye on them, but that is not what they want, so we stand by trusting all will be well....

September is such a busy month!  I used to think that when my children were grown, September would be a breeze!  But alas, Churchland is just like school and September brings all the hustle and bustle of a back to school season!

First an update on the Tent Trailer. I think it’s going to be okay! The roof was secured, the tires were changed. I’m feeling much better about my purchase. (We’ll see what I think after we take it out in August!)

This past week, I did a stupid thing. We have a fifth wheel that we use to camp with, but last year we sold our truck so we can’t pull it anymore (we’re gonna get around to selling the fifth wheel some day!) .

I love peonies. Big bold flowers that smell delicious and look marvelous. When Dave and I lived in Toronto, we had a peony bush that flowered twice in the summer – once early Spring, once closer to Fall.
