Arriving is much more fun than leaving. In our neck of the woods in Nova Scotia, departures are in the air. Recently we said goodbye to Rita and Ian who have returned to their life in Ottawa. And on Tuesday, Wendy and Clausen and their dogs will leave for their Potomac home. To ease the pain of departing, they will spend two nights at At. Andrew's by the Sea and three night at Booth Bay, so they are looking forward to an adventure as well as a long drive.
Ken and I leave September 8, while Mary and Clif the same day will fly to Wales to spend ten days before returning to Nova Scotia where they will stay until the end of September. Soon they too will have gone to Delaware and our houses will be quiet until late spring. But our summer has been lovely and Ken and I are keen to see our Texas family again. Then we will leave Texas on October 18 to drive to Mississippi, where our Mississippi family awaits. I just received an e mail from Molly to ask when we are coming home, so we have lots to look forward to. But our home here is so beautiful that we always hate to leave. And with our precarious health we wonder whether or not we will ever be able to return. But we were here for the summer of 2015 and we plan on being here for summer 2016 too. We are counting on yet another summer in Nova Scotia. As we depart on September, I will dwell on our return in 2016 and I will be happy.
