August 2, 2013. Western Head, N.S. Another Party.

The plan was to have cocktails down by the water.    Our friends were coming to say welcome to Pat and Mal and goodbye to Tucker and his three children.    Also Connie's Mother and step father had just arrived too, so with the five children and the 19 adults we were to make a fire and take the food and drinks to the deck by the fireplace.  It was a good idea but by 4:00, when we were ready to carry  the plastic glasses, wine and food down to the water, it started to rain.   So we were forced to have our outside party inside.   We still used all the plastic glasses and the boxes of wine.   No one minded a bit.

The four in our home ate our main meal at noon, in true Nova Scotian manner.  After people left, we sat in the living room and ate more cocktail food and talked.   It is very nice to gather friends together, especially for such a celebration.    And it is much easier when we have friends visiting us who help.   Once again, I am fortunately with my friends.
