Aug 9 - another family day in paradise

A brief bit of rain in the morning, before everyone really got going; threatening at times during the day; one brief downpour in the afternoon ... it was a flip flop day.  Warm and sunny most of the time, the weather cooperated with everything that we wanted to do -- SUP-ing for Aaron and Stef; boating with the Bayliner later in the afternoon; 4-wheeler'ing; 3-wheeler'ing, adjusting the idle and gradually getting that machine running smoother (another trip to the dealership averted); no complaints !

Early in the day I was called to a driveway on Osprey where a homeowner was complaining about some work that the MTO was doing at our behest.  Costs too much, not necessary, will block my guests, yes ... I'll be at the meeting and will volunteer ... oh wait, I'll have guests, no, I won't be there (absolutely typical). 

Let's see if anyone else sticks up their hand today.  Pat is stepping down.  Bob is going to take his place.  Randy is going to stick with it.  I'll stay on but would happily step off/down. 

Today is supposed to be another beautiful day.  Stef, Aaron, Lauren and Mya will leave at some point.  Jeffrey's gang and David's gang will both be leaving tomorrow a.m.  We'll be left with some quick cleanup and then we leave, staying overnight close to Toronto airport and flying on Sunday.

I did catch up with Arlene yesterday.  We both have fires in the distance but aren't threatened.  That's good.

Onward ... !
