August 14, 2023. Western Head, Nova Scotia. A Recovery Day.

The day after a journey calls for a day of recovery.  Today, we just stayed at home.  Doreen and Ruth sat outside this afternoon enjoying the beautiful view and the sunshine.  We did not stray from home.  Ruth walked across the causeway and to the end of Sand Beach Road but other than that we three stayed home and talked.   Ken always felt that the older he got, the more days he needed to recover from a journey.  And as Doreen is 88 and Ruth is 83, they needed a day to chill.

We ate good food.  Anna prepared our lunch of left over food, all mixed together.  It tasted delicious.  After an afternoon nap we drank a cup of herbal tea and ate a piece of banana nut bread made by friend Mary Mac.  Our dinner, made by Tina was a chicken pot pie and vegetables.  So we ate well today.

This evening we all three together performed my leg exercises.  We will probably will do those exercises together every day.  Our day was easy and fun.  Good food, wonderful weather and fine conversation makes for a pleasant day.  By tomorrow, Doreen and Ruth will be fully recovered.  Maybe.
