I am back at my grandmother's house for a few days vacation. The picture above is Patches looking out on the hummingbird feeders and the barn, and below is the quilt in my favourite room, the yellow room.
The main reason I came to
Mapleton was to pick up the car in the garage that Carole and I will need for the summer. And by sending me (I got a ride from Halifax with my cousin's family), Mom and Dad ensured that I would pay the bill for the brake repair when I took it in for a safety check (just kidding!) The only upside to waiting for them to replace the rotors and pads (and no, I don't know what those are) was eating lunch with Aunt Dorie at Pizza Delight.
I've also taken two days to go through my boxes which are being stored here (things like childhood treasures, souvenirs from my travels and old journals and pictures).
I was thrilled to find an antique poster I bought for Carole along the river in Paris (which we were both wondering where on earth it ended up) and to discover my oil paintings all hanging neatly in the back of closets (this is an original oil painting I brought back from Bali).
Some things I have been able to give up. Can anyone think of an occasion where I would actually need this suit? I think I'm going to keep the bottoms for
PJs and turn the top into a fabulous bag.
That's all for now, I'll try to get the pictures of my trip with Dad to St. George's island up when I get back to Halifax.
