We took a drive, hopefully heading to Mississippi Mills for bird seed, but I led us astray. I mistakenly plugged Carleton Place into Gillian GPS! Then, we tried to avoid highway #7, since drivers in baseball caps and pick-up trucks are hellbent to break the land speed record. It wasn't a very straight line, but a typical drive that we enjoy.

In Almonte, we walked Riverwalk bridge and went over to the pub. It was PACKED with people. The first time we've eaten outdoors this year. It was glorious.Thankfully, they had enough servers, and were prepared for the crowds!

Burn ban is on, with the quick snow melt and dry leaves and grasses.
