Summer is almost over...

Summer is almost over and that sucks really bad. I am not looking forward to the winters here at all but I heard that they are pretty close to the Maritimes without the cold sea air (I heard this from a Newfie).

We had a fire a couple of weekends ago in our new fire pit. You can't buy wood around here so we were just burning every cardboard box and twig we could find. Fun times!




















Our kitten Allie is getting big really fast, but she still loves getting into things!















Dana celebrated his 27th birthday last week and we also had our 2 year anniversary.















We will probably take a weekend trip to Winnipeg next month and I can't wait to go shopping at some real stores. Unless you live in a place like this, you will not know what it is like not being able to go shopping!! It is terrible! :(

Blueberry Festival!

Well, the Blueberry Festival is in full swing here in Sioux Lookout. With activities taking place all over town for the next 10 days there is so much to do!

I went on an air tour of town in a little 9 seat water plane and it was awesome! I got some great pictures of town even though it was a little bumpy!
















We also went to a dance, a blueberry pancake breakfast, BINGO and a multi-cultural festival. This weekend there is a book sale, trade show and fish fry. I will post more pictures as I do more!

From everyone here, including Blueberry Bert, have a great week!
