To the six of you following this tale, I deeply and sincerely apologize for my lack of updates this summer. We’ve been busy.
Meg and I were lying in bed watching the Bachelorette last night sipping champagne pretending that we were contestants. Every commercial break brought another level of ecstasy and foreshadowed bigger and better moments to come.
We’ve been bouncing around the country and back and forth between our two provinces for the better part of five months now. In fact, yesterday was our six month anniversary from the that freakish, hellish double blizzard that got me stuck in this frontier province in the first place.
I will admit to you, that the place is remarkably better 6 months later during the summer. I’m sitting here on the deck writing you now as a moose wanders up the neighbours yard. I have whales in the ocean below my deck surfacing, clearing their blow holes and diving back down for a smorgasbord of presumably more fish. I’m surrounded by ocean and cliffs so high and steep that they make the Cliffs of Insanity (Princess Bride reference) feel like a climbing wall at the day care. I had a team of painters painting the deck today. I couldn’t understand a word they were saying, but the deck looks right good, so I spose it doesn’t much matter. Yes Buy! A new perspective for sure.
My mother and my eldest daughter were over on this trip. My daughter had a thing with my mother to go to. It’s really nice of Meg to entertain my mother. I’m still having a wee bit of issues with the whole divorce thing with my eldest daughter, but I’m glad she got the opportunity to see this beautiful part of the country.
The next leg of our adventures puts Meg and I in another province to see my Sister and two weeks later in another province to see my cousin. The B&M road show continues…
