Weekend Update - We are on holidays

Hi

Unlike most, this weekend has been quite slow. I think it's most likely coupled with the knowledge that we are both on holiday all next week. It is Thanksgiving on Thursday so we get that off in addition to Friday which leaves for a nice break if one takes Mon-Wed off. So tomorrow we will start insulating our attic, a job that is long overdue. More on that later....

A relaxing day was had by all yesterday. Took a long walk in our local Happy Hollow Park There is something nice about getting ones lungs filled with clean crisp atumn air while on a long saunter in the woods. Last night we went to a neighbour and friends house, Gary, Cheryl and Claire, for a relaxing evening. Great food, good company and games to boot.

Today then, I was back at the brew pot in preparation for Davey and Sams visit. Today I cooked up a chocolate oatmeal stout, a beer that is modeled after an award winning commercial brew, Oscars chocolate Oatmeal Stout from the Sand Creek Brewing company in Wisconsin. Yum Yum...Have to wait and see how that turns out.

Lynne was also able to enjoy her favourite pass-time, pottering or working in the garden. She was doing a final clean-up before the winter finally sets in.

Lorraine and Randy will be arriving soon so I need to close. Have a nice week everybody......
