After living in our house for so many years there was always a list of things to do. The never ending Todo list was one of the incentives for selling. Now its more like; lets not do to many things today cause then we have nothing to do tomorrow. I am sure the Todo list, even when living in the trailer, will start to accumulate but for the time being its more like looking for activities to keep us busy. Once this heat and humidity breaks and we get to more normal August weather (whatever normal is) we can spend a little more time outside. I did manage an 8 km walk with Charli on Tuesday morning while Lori was off to Yoga but really need to start a little earlier before the humidity starts to build.
On Sunday I discovered that I packed the barbecue hose with the house stuff so the barbecued chicken for supper wasn't going to happen. Dropped in to Wicker World on Tuesday to pick up a new hose but spotted a nice new red Napoleon Travel Q and ended up going home with it. Got it unpacked at home and no hose. They are built for those little screw-on canisters and the hose is an option. Shit! Back to Wicker World and now I have a functional bbq and a larger credit card bill to look forward to next month.
We went out to the Belgian Pavilion on Tuesday. Haven't been out to Folklarama for at least 15 years. The food and entertainment was just ok. The stage show consisted of some traditional songs and dances and a lengthy history of what seems to be the centre of Belgian culture, Beer. I did sample one of the 27 varieties they had available and have to say that that was the highlight. We plan on visiting a few more pavilions in the next 2 weeks.
Wednesday night the trailer was just a rockin’. The wind, rain, thunder and lightning plus a loss of power made for an interesting evening.
Thursday I have a massage and haircut scheduled in the morning and then its…….wait for it………laundry day. Friends have offered us the use of their washer and dryer so we are off to their place with our laundry basket. Side benefit, they have fast Wifi. Life in the fast lane, eh!
Friday I have my monthly Lunch at the Legion with some fellow CIBC Retirees and then off to take in the latest Bourne flick.
Off in the distance, through a maze of people, the floor show at the Belgian Pavillion.
