July Long Weekend...

Tons of fun in the sun on the long weekend.  It wasn't very buggy at the cottage again, unless you ventured out to go for a walk on the road--at which point you would be attacked.  Paige and Rose were able to play for hours in the water as it was low enough to have a small sandy beach this year.  Scout enjoyed playing on the shore too, and retrieving her "dokken" from the lake.  Mike even got her to swim a little to retrieve it.

This was also the weekend where we heard the world's loudest fireworks.  There must be a new kind because a few people had them and they sounded like a bomb going off, or a war or something.  It was ridiculous.  My dad also went to the Foote Lake cottager association meeting where they all were reminded that fireworks are "illegal" at our lake.  Well, we had bought $100 in fireworks the previous day.  Hmmm...  so we just blasted them off anyway.  Besides, we did it at 9, rather than the other people who sent off sonic booms at 10:30.
