Saturday was July 1 and we celebrated Canada Day. There were various activities going on in most places. I hope everyone had a very happy day for Canada’s 150th birthday.
Get well wishes to Darwin Krose who is in Renfrew Hospital.
Get well to Allison Corrigan who is still in Shawville Hospital. We wish him all the best for a good recovery.

We are still having a lot of rain which is making it difficult to do our outside work. Hopefully this week we will get some nice weather.
My sister Beulah spent last week with us. We have a busy week getting caught up with things before I have my hip replacement. I still have not gotten a call about it. It was supposed to be in June but now it won’t be.
This week we had cards Tuesday night in Otter Lake and darts on Thursday night as I mentioned before we stop from June 29 until July 18 for holidays.
Happy belated birthday wishes to Lisa Taylor on June 28, to Fran Erfle on June 30, to Brian Thoms on June 30 and also to Jenny Pasch on June 20, to Ann Villeneuve on July 1 and to Harold Mahlitz of Kitchener-Waterloo who is celebrating his 70th on July 4.

They toured various places of interest including St. Ann de Beaupré, Mountary Falls, a winery, a place where things from copper are made and had dinner in a restaurant that was built in the year 1683.
