Westport trip: September 18th

Trips to Westport are always lovely. We had late lunch at The Cove, Monday, Sept. 18th. The view is spectacular. Many local place are keeping their patios open much later in the season than is usual.
The harbour is a lovely spot, with only a few boats. As we ate, a flock of geese came into the bay. Then, there were the seagulls on the wharf. The trees are beginning to turn.

On the road, again: soccer game

We went to The Cove for dinner, in order to get to Portland for Caitlin's 19:30 soccer game on June 5th.

A raccoon ran across the road. It was a dreary few days.



It was quite the game. Our girls had to drive out from Ottawa (75 minutes for some) to get to the game.

The bugs were AWFUL, with the rain. It was a damp day.
The opposing team, it was their home field in Portland, was a young, tough group of young women (the league is an adult one), who liked to use elbows. There were some issues, several injuries on our side. They were shameless, as the score upped itself to 5 - 1, still elbows flew, there was a fake fall, too.

A lot of our Jazz team is made up of women in their 30s, who are used to a recreational league.

We brought oranges, just like the good, old days. Caitlin has been playing soccer since she was a youngster.
