Aaron Is Here for a Visit

This has been a busy week.  Last Friday, Aaron and his friend Mike drove up to see us.  He and Mike are staying here in the house at Clyde River with us.  The cottage is being occupied by Steffy's family and Abby for the week.  Summer weather just arrived this past week.  Before then, it was pleasantly warm with cool evenings suitable for a bonfire.  Now, it is summer, but not too hot!  Just enough to let you know it's time for the beach.

Aaron's and my 25th wedding anniversary was yesterday.  We went to the PEI Preserve Co. for dinner up in New Glasgow.  It was quite a beautiful evening after nearly a full day of gray sky and rain.  I have been spending Friday through Monday every week at the cottage, relaxing on the beach and working on my Teaching English as a Second Language distance course.  Of course, I am still teaching my UMassLowell law course online, which is always enjoyable. 

The PEI Women's Institute has asked me to demonstrate art quilting techniques at Old Home Week in Charlottetown this summer.  Abby will be showing her horses there, too, this year.  She has a show on Saturday and will be showing Monty, Cheyenne and Buttercup.  They are all looking very good.  I think she may bring home some prizes for all the work she has done with Harvey's horses this year.
