picked up by my daughter and grandson after work today…

we wandered around Rona for a while and then went to The Keg for dinner... lobster summer… disappointing tonight…

  
my lobster was tasty and the steak was well done, but there wasn’t too much of it… the coleslaw wasn’t to my taste… had a bit of an Asian flavour to it which didn’t feel like it went with the rest of the food on the plate… felt like the prices have gone up and the standards have gone down… too bad as I’ve always felt you could get a good meal there…

then we went to Dairy Queen for dessert… my favourite thing is really just a small soft ice cream cone… but we were taken in by the cute little ice cream cupcakes…

  
sigh, should have got the ice cream cone…

always good to try new things, but sometimes it is best to stick with what you know, lol…

final disappointment of the evening… my daughter looked at the tv and came to the same conclusion as I had… it is dead… good news is they probably have one I can use…

great to spend time with them…

colour…

this afternoon I got to leave work a little early and decided to stop at Dairy Queen for an ice cream cone… George and I would stop occasionally on our way home if he picked me up… I don’t think I’ve been to this particular store since he died… they have done a complete overhaul and besides looking very nice inside, they now have a drive-thru – for ice cream, I can’t believe it…

we would sit in the car in the parking lot and talk about our day and the kids… I sat there for a few minutes in my new car thinking about how much fun we got to have together… no tears, just happy memories…

when I got home I sat in the living room and talked with Crystal on the phone for a few minutes while looking out the window… it was overcast and the wind was picking up, but the leaves across the creek were very lovely with many shades of green and yellow…

got closer to the window and got a shot of my neighbour’s tree and some beautiful leaves on a little waif close to their house…

went onto the deck and got a few lovely shots of the elm in the other neighbour’s yard… what leaves are on it are a gorgeous shade of yellow and as I took the pictures, leaves were flying through the sky like rain…

not long after that the rain started and apparently will continue through most of tomorrow…
