Gramma Camp – Day 5

It has been wonderful having the girls here. We watch some news, then turn it off to play. There is much going on.

Seeing Facebook pictures from my oblivious friend who refused to return from Laos until she was basically sent home having goodbye parties with all her friends. Sharing food from the same plates. Sitting close. Hugging and kissing. She wants a friend to pick her up at the airport

We watched the morning weather.

Poor Grampa was up coughing at 4 a.m. It is his chest cold, back again. I couldn't sleep anymore. I got up to blog. At 10 I went back to bed for a nap. Jophee got up at 10:30!

I've two trailcams. Here is #1. I caught Isabelle searching for her crafting supplies.



We had a lazy day. The girls sent messages to and from Momma. They checked in with friends. We tidied up, the girls packed their bags. Jos emailed to let her parents know we were leaving shortly.

Off we went. First stop was to sign up for Pitch In garbage bags for ditch cleanup. I wasn't sure if I should take some, or if this was just a sign up. sigh. There weren't enough for me, anyway. They were gone by the time I arrived.

 

From there, I missed my turn to go to CP. My delightful son-in-law was there waiting for us. He snapped a photo of Isabelle and I!



Caitlin, you must tell Jos. I realized the batteries were done at trailcam #2. I took out the cartridge, took it up to the house. I asked her if she'd replace it for me. She would and did. Off she went, back to the arbour. Sadly, when I went to check it after the hostage exchange in Carleton Place, I realized I hadn't fully inserted the SD card. sigh.

When I arrived home, to amazing winds, the tree I photographed yesterday, is a mess! TIMBER!
