The Ridge
On Sunday, May 28th Bill was upby 6:15 and getting ready to go flying. I got up at 7 on time to say goodbye and stayed up. It was a lovely looking morning again and a mild 10C/50F to start the day. After playing some games online, Gibbs and I went for our walk to the corner and beyond a bit. I overdressed and had to slip my jacket off before we returned.
Walking west on North Line, away from our home All irises are beautiful
They are intricately designed, aren't they?
I worked on the puzzle for a while, watered my
vegetables and came inside to get washed. I had some yogourt and then went back
out with Gibbs. Big mistake! We are going visiting after lunch so I made the
goof of putting on a bit of body spray. The black flies, or whatever they are
now, loved it and made a nice sit, very annoying! We came back indoors and
since it was close enough to lunch, I got the bacon and eggs out.

but that's what I like!The next step in the dandelion oil process

Bacon was
cooked when Mr. “I’ll be home by 12” pulled in the lane. Exactly at noon. 😊 However, it took a bit longer than that to get parked and unhooked
from the cargo trailer. I started the eggs at 12:05 and my timing was almost
perfect. After lunch, he dozed for 20 minutes and we dressed for a ride on
Jazz. My first this season. ♥ It’s a perfect day for it and we had someplace special to be!

We rode
to Drayton and then on to Krystal and Matt’s home to visit with our new
grandson. Alexander is even tinier than I expected, just because you really
forget how small babies are! He was in his Daddy’s arms when we walked in and
what a sweet little addition to the family. ♥ Of course, we took turns holding him, a picture moment, in between his
feeding time. Feeding time which, at 12 days old, is in full control of. 😊

We had a great visit, catching up on their news and sharing ours. This parenting role looks good on them both and we couldn’t be happier for them. We left around 4 and had a nice ride home again.
A photo album for Alexander I added a few beginning pictures but left lots of room for new pictures. |
It is about an hour so a perfect length of time
for us older folk to be on a two-wheeler. Feeling content at home, we decided
on a simple meal of grilled cheese sandwiches. I added a thin slice of tomato
to mine for a change. I’ll sure be glad when my home-grown tomatoes are ready!
These grocery store ‘imitations’ just don’t taste the same.

Bill made
his lunch for tomorrow and I worked on this posting. This was an awesome day, a
perfect Sunday, consisting of a perfect ride and a visit with a perfect baby
boy. ♥ I hope your weekend also ended on a
good note!
Thank you

What a sweet little baby boy and his proud parents. Congratulations to all of you!

ReplyDeleteMy dandelions are soaking in oil today.... I think I am going to make salve from mine this time as I have all the ingredients to hand. Now I am on the hunt for enough plantain weeds to make something else.
ReplyDeleteAlexander is such a cutie!!!
God bless.
