The Ridge
On Wednesday, July 28th I woke to different surroundings and could hear a rustling of covers and feel movement in the bed beside me. Oh yah, that’s my sister. Now I know where I am! It took me a while to get to sleep last night, about 30 minutes, which is unusual for me, but then I slept well until 6:30. Aj joined us, we all woke around the same time and we chatted before moseying upstairs.
I had
yesterday’s post to finish so set to work while the other girls talked about
things that mostly ‘lost’ me. π That’s okay, I’m not into everything they are nor do I
understand a lot of it. With the blog finished, I went down to give my chosen ‘exchange’
clothes a second perusal. I managed to swap out a couple of items but was quite
happy with everything else.
We had a Scrabble game on the go, the real hard copy game, so we take turns playing that. In between that, Donna surprised us all and brought out some Tarot cards for fun. We each took a turn at having our cards read. Interesting how some things were bang on and others totally 'out there'. It was around noon when we started pulling the lunch food out of the fridge and set up for another round of unique tastes. π
Ready for Espe Isn't she a bright little star? π
It was 1:30 when we were all dressed and Donna drove this time to Hanover. We had a 90-minute class booked for Yoga with Espe and she was all set up on her outside deck for us. Now, in case I haven’t mentioned before, yoga isn’t really my thing. But my sisters love it and seem to benefit from it so to keep the group together and the cost down, of course I said yes. My niece, Joanne, joined us in place of Cathy. It was okay and I really enjoy Espe’s energy. No regrets but………still not my thing. (sorry yoga lovers!)
She has a nice place at the Yoga Barn and it was great to be in the fresh air for our stretches |
We came
home immediately after the class and had about an hour before we had to leave
to meet Wendy at Mudtown Station in Owen Sound for supper. I made myself a cup
of tea and I think Gayle and Donna did the same. The girls had showers and we
loaded the excess bags of exchange clothes in Donna’s car and at 5:30 we were
on our way. Wendy arrived soon after us and we had about 30 minutes to wait for a table. We were soon seated at an outdoor picnic table.
Mudtown Station
Our picnic table was on the grass
but the place was busy
We
chatted, laughed and caught up while waiting for our meals and boy were they
worth the wait. We never, I repeat, never, have a bad meal there and tonight
was no exception. I had the Whip Burger and soup of the day. Delicious! 5
plates have never been so clean after a meal. Excellent! We paid and tipped
Carter for the service and said goodbye to Wendy. We’ll see her in the morning
for another fun day.
Audrey and I were watching the changes in the west sky
Nice car too!The menu is always different and I thought I'd
try the pizza but it was just sold outInstead I had this Whip Burger with Peppered onion and garlic soup
Oh my! Both were amazing!
After
dropping off the clothes at Value Village, we drove home to relax. I had a
glass of Arbor Mist and we continued to take turns at Scrabble. Four sisters
and an opportunity for a game of Euchre opened itself to us. We teamed up and played
2 games. I was on the losing team but I’ve missed playing the card game that we
grew up with so I didn’t mind at all. π It was approaching 10:30 and we were all tired and ready for
bed. Another busy day tomorrow.
A little change in the view
Good night!

ReplyDeleteGod bless.
Yup, it was wonderful!
DeleteWhip burger ... oh yeah!!!! I agree ... yoga isn't my thing either. Sure sounds like a good time though!!
ReplyDeleteI had to ask what a Whip burger was and our waiter told us that it was just a homemade burger but the name Whip was what the chef called it from his former restaurant. Ha ha
DeleteIt was delicious!
We're having fun and grateful for the days together.
Indeed we are!
