August 21, 2023. Western Head, Nova Scotia. A Splendid Day.

 Our day began with fog.  But no rain.  David N. came to finish the shingles but by 11:00 the rains came so he came in to visit with us.  He is good company so Doreen, Ruth R. and I enjoyed chatting, mostly about our cruise of last year.  Our plan for the day was to walk in town before going out to lunch at the Cellar 3 restaurant.  Evidently they have the best food in town.  But the rain spoiled the walk.  Eventually the rain stopped and David went back to work while we went to lunch with Anna driving us in Anna's car.

Our food was delicious and the service excellent so we were pleased.  By the time we got home it was 3:30.  So we all put our feet up for a half an hour.  Fran, who was staying in the Guest House came over to report on her journey to Montreal.  Just when we were getting organized for tea, Mary and Walt brought us out a banana nut loaf.  The timing was perfect so we drank our tea along with a piece of freshly baled banana nut bread, which was still warm.  Walt and Mary would not stay for tea.  And Anna had gone home  but we three ladies along with friend Fran enjoyed our tea and fresh bread.  And we enjoyed the report about Montreal.

After dinner, Doreen and Ruth R.  reorganized the china cabinet.  I am sending Grandma Buckleys dishes back to my niece, Wendy, so they look out the china to go to Ontario and they set up the remaining chins good its.  And Ruth R. polished the silver water pitcher which is also returning to Ontario and the Bucklay family.  So we had a delightful, interesting day.  Not fancy but splendid.
