July 7, 2011. Western Head, NS. A Birthday Party.

Tonight was the first of the summer celebrations.  Mary M. was having a birthday so Susie and Jeff. had a party.  It is a tradition for Mary to fly kites on her birthday and tonight was no exception.  At one point Mary had three kites up in the air.

The dinner party was festive.  First we had the birthday, then Gill had arrived this afternoon, and finally, three folks were present who I did not know.   Bruce is just relocating to Western Head from Otter Lake just outside Parry Sound.  He has purchased his house here, to settle in August.  The good fellow went searching for the kite when one fell from the sky and he found it, off in the bushes on the top of a tree.  The other couple live right next to our artist friend Roger Savage, in fact Karen, the wife,  is his sister and Ron, the husband was in charge of the exhibits at the Science Museum in Toronto.  They have lived here since 2005 but we had not yet met them, even though I knew of them.  Now it is official.

Wonderful chocolate cake and ice cream.  Tasty pasta and salads.  Lively company.  All together makes for a splendid evening.
