A wonderful relaxing Friday, with great weather to boot!

Where are we today ?
        Just a lot more of the same with a  twist. Warm night, windows open and great weather (no bugs too, unless we go in the bush). Standard early morning coffees, computing and walkabouts, then off to the store in Buckhorn at 8:30 am for a few supplies. 
        Back home by 9 am said hello to our friends Pat and Norm that arrived, then at 9:30 went to the clubhouse with Janny (free wifi) to help her set up her G mail account so she can make free phone calls from her computer. We use this in Canada and the USA with our internet, no need to use minutes on our cell phones. Works great for us.
       Then a few more walkabouts, lunch and enjoy our books in the shade for a while. Gotta love this weather.

     Then about 4 o'clock Norm and Pat were sitting out, so joined them for a "Happy Hour" along with their dog BJ (Billy Jean) and Jim with his poodle "Max". 
      Its been at least a year since we have seen Norm and Pat Maybe 2 years for Jim so was a fun get together.

         Soon time to head home, whip up supper. Tonight a couple salmon fillets on the grill add to a tasty leafy salad and another version of my rice pilaf. My rice pilaf is whatever I put in it, tonight onions, fresh mushrooms, celery, carrots, broccoli, kale, garlic and yep even some rice.

sure hit the spot
         Supper done, dishes done, garbage done and we can read for a bit on another nice evening, Chat with a couple people then before we know it, (getting dark) time to call if a night.
         Thanks again for stopping in for a peek, hope you had a fun day too.

  2. We weren't so lucky. Every time we went outside today it started to rain. We'll head to your end of the province in July.
    Be Safe and Enjoy!

    It's about time.

  3. We're still having rain and more rain but it actually got up into the 70's today which was a nice change. Went to a garage sale and bought myself six more books. Love those garage sales.

  4. How do you get free phone calls via your computer with G Mail? Are you referring to Skype or Magic Jack?

    2. We have to use them from Mexico, only way to call for nothing. I have no idea how to do Gmail chat or find the setting. Not too computer savy.

    1. Most days here are great and the meals, whatever we feel like eating is the way I like to cook.

  6. That meal should be on the cover of a menu for an expensive restaurant.
