No one is paying attention to the storm called Irene. It is interesting to observe the lack of anxiety in the population. Everyone here tells us that the storm is definitely not coming here. Meanwhile, my friends in the Washington, D.C. area tell me that the stores are out of bread, milk and water. I made a reservation at Lanes for brunch on Sunday and she took my phone number, just in case the power is out and they can't cook. But it certainly is not causing much panic here in Nova Scotia.
Tomorrow we will celebrate our 53rd anniversary at Lane's Privateer Inn. Ian and Rita wanted to take us out to dinner tonight but instead we will celebrate tomorrow morning. Today we spent the day at the cottage, a fine place to enjoy an anniversary. The weather was perfect. We stayed all day, including dinner. The water was warm for swimming, and Vinal, Rita and Ken went fishing all afternoon in the boat. Ian kept the fire alive all day. It was a lovely day and perfect for our anniversary.
