August 18, 2019. Western Head, Nova Scotia. Weekend Entertain meant.

Pat and Mal leave tomorrow so this weekend we had a wonderful string of events. Friday evening Mary and Cliff invited the five of us for dinner in their home. Their home is lovely and it is always a pleasure sitting in their living room and dining room. Mary served a summer dinner of hamburgers, yellow and green string beans and fresh corn on the cob. The corn was delicious, purchased at Valeries market in town. It was local corn. For dessert we ate fresh fruit with yogurt. All five of us commented on the way home how much we enjoyed our evening which was partly due to the good food and partly to the good company. On Saturday, Pat and Mal took us to the Quarterdeck. The setting is beautiful, right at the edge of the water but last year the food was not very good. I had already been there this year and reported good food so we tried it again. Fortunately our food was excellent so we were pleased. As an appetizer for all five I ordered lobster poutine. We ate the whole thing. The weather was perfect and again we enjoyed our food and the company. Today, Wendy and Clausen took the five of us to White Point Resort, which is reliably excellent. There were lots of people on the beach and in the water even though the fog kept coming in and going out. I ate their fish tacos, a favorite of mine. Dave and Irene drove with Wendy and Claussen in their big car and enjoyed the comfort and the conversation. Once again, we enjoyed our lunch together. Thanks to Mary and Cliff and Pat and Mal and Wendy and Clausen for keeping us so well entertained this weekend. Our meals together were delightful. We will miss Pat and Mal when they leave tomorrow. Having good friends is wonderful.
