50 Years!

Today was kind of a special day for us, our 50th anniversary! We celebrated by doing one of our favorite things on a beautiful day, a drive in the country from Waterloo to Bayfield, carefully timed for a lunch stop at Anna Mae's restaurant in Millbank. As George from Our Awesome Travels has said many times, their broasted chicken is really tasty:


After lunch we carried on to Bayfield to check progress at the Bayfield Mews. Roofing our block is continuing and almost done, having had some rain delays in the past few days.

Then back to Clinton to moochdock at our friends place overnight. Tonight we were the audience for some rousing ends at the Clinton Lawn Bowling Club:





All in all a fine day.

      Thanks George. The house is rain-resistant now, so the inside jobs are progressing faster. We're ready for a home base again!

    Holy Smokes I've hardly ever even known any one person for 50 years. You guys are made of good stuff. I too love that broasted chicken at Anna Maes and your picture looked so good I could have ate my computer screen.

      Thanks Karen. Lawn bowling is nice on a warm summers eve. They move inside for similar "carpet bowling" for the winter.

    Congratulations! You're probably 'senior' enough you could take up lawn bowling yourselves!
