Much warmer overnight. And we had a great sleep windows wide open. I went outside just before 8 am and on our patio was a racoon! As soon as he saw me he scurried away, under the coach and gone! Did not see it again all day that's a good thing too.
A nice walkabout town for about and hour and spotted these 2 white (Emden) Geese walking down the sidewalk and into someones yard, Just out for a stroll just like me I guess.
Back home I hopped in the car to go pick up gas for the yard mower, New Hamburg the closest gas station. And then home for a light lunch,
After lunch got some nice reading time in and a few short walkabouts. But was getting warm . In the shade under our awning with no breeze was 98f (36C), so a dip in the pool was called for just to get all refreshed and cooled down, perfect.

Then just after 3:30pm we headed off the Stratford about 30 minutes away, For a cousin get-together with with Suzie's cousins and more. Her one cousin Heather along with Ralph and her son Tuscan were here visiting from Germany, So was nice for them to catch up again after a couple of years.

We all just hung out chatted for a while and moved around the crowd, doing what ya do at these things.
Once we all there the food was uncovered and we all dug in. I picked up some KFC and another bucket for here cousin Gail, Suzie jut said as kids they always had KFC when they picnicked here so that was here request. Lots a wonderful tasty salads, even a pizza casserole was excellent, thanks Rose

| it was all so tasty |

| deserts, cheery cheesecake, peach pie, tiny donuts and cookies |
Then the kids made a bee line to the playground, use up some of their energy. While this was going on people were bring in lawn chairs and setting up in front of the bandshell right behind us.
The band members began filling in and setting up on the stage. Excellent music I guess they do these concerts frequently here in the summer.
Then eventually we manage togged everyone in one place so that could get a nice group picture of some of Suzie cousin and family.

| that was all that could make it today, sorry it is not really clear |
We were back home about 8 pm and with full tummies we just relaxed inside reading and blogging for a while until time for bed.
Glad you dropped on by and hope your day was a great one as well.
Where have we been this summer ?
