Happy Canada Day!



What a wonderful day in the year. On this day I can usually be found watching the Canada Day Parade, waving and shaking hands with my city's Mayor, or letting the kids wade in the cool water of Okanagan Lake, and planning how long I want to spend at the local Westside Dayz with the kids.
Hopefully they'll be having Westside Dayz again next year.
I love my country, and am terribly happy that I'll be returning to it soon.
I'm looking forward to large juicy warm fresh peaches from a fruit stand, juicy and tart apricots, and warm and sweet cherries.
I'm dreaming of Gramma's Bannock.
I'm drooling over the thought of eating Dad's Brand Oatmeal cookies with a cup of milk.
5 days until we leave Ohio...I'll be home soon enough.
