This past weekend was the unofficial end of spring here in Canada. This coming weekend is known as the May 2-4 weekend; a long weekend officially celebrating the bir
th of Queen Victoria but in reality, the traditional time for opening the cottage for the summer. In unusual fashion, this year’s long weekend actually includes May 24th or Victoria’s birthday.
I spent part of Sunday, as per usual, walking at Inglis Falls, just south of Owen Sound. The water coming over the dam is much higher than usual. The Trilliums, Ontario’s official flower, are almost finished blooming and the trees are in full leaf.
This week’s Blogging Boomers Carnival is hosted by It’s All About Aging. We seem to have a strange number of posts including dogs – protest dogs in Greece, Boomer women finding activities for their dogs – as well as mother-of-the-bride dresses, living to 100, will Yiddish die out, sexual secrets of women and LinkedIn. Please check out the Carnival and leave a comment or two if you’re so moved.
Have a good week.
