The sun DID appear...

No, it wasn't all cloud and misery this past month!

We enjoyed some sunny days too.  The warmth was heavenly after a long cold winter of sitting around with my knee up or bumbling around on crutches!  A real blessing!

Here are a few sunny day pics. (click on them to get the full effect!)

 All is calm ....for now!
From a lookout.
The Trading Post had a nice display outside.

 "Finders, keepers!"
 The boardwalk before the storm....water still higher than normal!
 Path to breakwater was almost flooded before the storm.

 Daughter catching some rays.
 Granddaughter on her supper break.
 Thais enjoying a very cool swim.
 "Somehow, we're supposed to be able to get into this thing!"
 Two lovely ladies enjoying the sun.
 Matt took to the waves.

 Chillin' and readin'...
 "How do we throw these balls again?????"
 "Who's closest???"
 Interesting....:)
 We all went out to enjoy our 43rd Wedding Anniversary.
 Walking...
 Moments....
 Chatting...
 A bee hovered...
 Some kind of wild flower/weed????
 Is this clover???....it was in amongst some other shorter varieties. Pretty.
An evening at Birch Bay.
 Which way shall I go???
 Checking out the Heart Lakes docks.
 Reflection and words...
 Calm evening at the beaver slough...
 A famous golden Waskesiu sunset.
Thais - "The Bocce Ball Queen!"
 He liked visiting my beach towel.
 An enormous puff!
 "Certainly, I can pose for you."
 The poplars of South Bay.
 Boreal Forest.
Taking a rest.
 Hard at work.
 Fire weed??? or some such thing.
Miss glam....:)

See!!!  We did have some sunny days. The best part though was spending time with our children and getting to know Thais, not to mention having Brittney stay with us for the month while she worked hard.

Next time we come back here, I shall be a person of leisure ie. retired!...the Lord willing....

Now to bed!
