They have visited us in Nova Scotia every year since we moved here for the summer, except last year they were unable to come due to medical issues. But this summer they have arrived and will stay for three weeks in the Guest House. Ken and I are delighted they are here. They flew in from Hamilton in mid afternoon and arrived at our home at 7:00. The beauty of the Guest House is that they can hang around reading in their pajamas drinking coffee and eating breakfast and never bother to see anyone. It feels like a regular vacation rather than visiting relatives.
When we first told Dave and Irene what we had purchased in Nova Scotia, Dave checked the map and called back to say that they could not easily get there from Ontario. He was correct but they managed. For years they drove but now they fly. They both look great. After dinner, we commented that Irene was the only able bodied person in the group. And we laughed.
Good families are wonderful. Dave and Irene have been part of our lives for a very long time. And through all those years, we have never had an unpleasant moment. I read of families having fights but not my family. They have been helpful to us in many situations over the past over 60 years. Ken and I are grateful to have Dave and Irene visit us this summer as we missed them last year. Now let the summer fun begin.
