Double Celebration Day

Our Location Today Tecumseh, Ontario, Canada.

After sleeping in until 7:30 this morning we started off with a good breakfast waffles before checking the computers.
It wasn't long before we were out the door heading over to the trailer in the storage yard. When we unloaded the trailer from our last trip we had left our clean clothes in the drawers. The problem with that was now we were not certain exactly what we needed to bring with us on this next trip. Today we went to retrieve those clothes so when we pack this weekend we will know exactly what we are bringing.
From there we headed over to our daughter Karen's home because we had a date to go to lunch with Kylla our granddaughter. When we arrived we found out she was just getting out of bed (yawning above) because she had worked from midnight until 7:00 this morning. We thought we'd leave her sleep but when she heard our voices she was out of bed in a flash. A few minutes more and she was ready to go.
We headed over to Gilligan's which serves mostly sandwich type foods but also some of the simpler plated meals. We won't be home next month on the twenty-fourth which is Kylla's birthday so we were privately celebrating it today. The food has always been first rate as it was today the problem was that it is so tasty that we never thought to take pictures until we were half way done our meals.
After leaving the restaurant we headed back to the storage yard because Kylla wanted to see our new trailer. She had seen our old trailer but not this new unit. We opened it up to showcase the trailer and all the improvements we had made.
While doing so I noticed the front of the storage drawer under the rear couch seemed to be sagging. A closer inspection showed the screws were falling out into the drawer. I found the screwdriver to repair it only to find the holes were totally stripped. Out came the drill to put new holes through the inner drawer and five minutes later we were leaving the trailer with everything in tip top shape.
When we got Kylla home she told us that she had to get some more sleep because she had to be back to work for five tonight. Talk about overworking yourself well Kylla isn't the only one. Her dad Greg kept working all afternoon in the high heat with no breaks and little to drink hoping to finish their new deck.
I helped Karen reorganize the garage and unload new patio furniture before Kathy and I headed home. It felt good to cool down and get cleaned up until we remembered a few overlooked items we needed at Staples Office Supply so we headed out to take care of that.
For supper Kathy and I went out to Boston Pizza to enjoy their Tuscan Pizza. We can enjoy pizza anywhere anytime but when our craving hits for a Tuscan Pizza there is only one place to go. We even topped it off by sharing a Chocolate Explosion piece of cake for dessert and totally forgot to take a picture of it as well. The reason we splurged is because we were celebrating our 11th Wedding Anniversary. We do like to keep it low keyed and celebrate it privately.
With less then 3 days before the start of our next adventure we are getting everything together and anxious to go. Be Safe and Enjoy!

It's about time.
