In the Box
For being a season ticket holder for the Toronto Marlies I got to invite a bunch of friends to enjoy a game in one of the suites in the Ricoh Centre. We watched the game, chatted non stop, drank, ate and screamed for the Marlies. The service was amazing. Quinton had figured out that the server was like room service and all you had to do was ask for something. He started off by asking for a drink and a hot dog. I had timed getting the food served an hour into the game but the host seeing Quinton's need for food had the sausages sent up early. We got to see the game from a different view than our regular seats and that was fun. Dan & Bill bought a round of chips and popcorn as well as a round of drinks. I did a stupid dance and hopefully David will be kind enough to erase it off his camera. What an exhilarating night.

Closing the Cottage
Windy, cold and cloudy until the day we left. That was very typical of the cottage season this year. My favourite part, sitting on the swing reading a book and looking at the lake. Least favourite black flies. No explanation needed. This weekend Kevin helped with pulling up the dock. It was nice to have the extra person to get this done. We tried a bit of tarring of the second cabins roof edge but it was so windy we couldn't get much done. In fact the thin tar left a splatter of drops all over my face. I thought I had got dirt or dust in my eye when in fact there was tar on my eyelid. Dad scrambled to get the boat before it floated away. The boat kept getting hit by waves and by the morning it was swamped. I'm hoping that I will be able to get up one more time in November and just savour the weekend.
