September 26 to 30, 2008, back in Drummond'Ville

SEPT. 26, Friday, In Drummond’Ville

Oooooh, It feels so good to wake up in our own bed and use our own bathroom!

A cloudy day but it is warm. Today was a very sad day for everyone! Gilles and Lise had to euthanize Sam, their Bovier dog as he had serious medical problems with no guarantees that it would get better. It was really hard.

We got groceries as we came home then had a few drinks with Gilles and Lise.


SEPT. 27, Saturday, Relaxing

It rained overnight and a cloudy day. Gilles and Lise went to Montreal today to see her daughter and celebrate their grand-daughter’s first birthday. Val cleaned the inside of “Q” and I worked on the outside.


SEPT. 28, Sunday A new addition....Myra

Rained overnight again but the days are just overcast. Gilles, Lise and Val went to pick up the new addition to the family; a 2 months old female Bouvier. She is really cute….see pictures on our Picasa site, folder #22. Tucker took up to her quickly.

Later in the afternoon, friends that we met in Florida 3 years ago, Renald and Denise, stopped by on their way home. We had a marvelous visit and we had them over so dinner. Val had cooked a big pot of chili and we had it in Gilles house. Everyone enjoyed it….Gilles even took the left-over with him to LaTuque.
They left around 7:30 p.m. and so did Gilles. A good day, indeed.


SEPT. 29, Monday

It rained again overnight but it’s cloudy for the day. I went to the local lumber yard and picked up some materials to build a shelve in the front locker under the bedroom. I also called Telus and changed our plan to North America plan as of Oct. 10…all part of our departure.
A neighbor who is a welder came over to weld the bike rack straight so the bikes ride straight up rather than slanted as before. He also strengthen it. My cost? $30. Not bad!


SEPT. 30, Tuesday, out for a drive

A sunny day. The forecast is for rain for the next two days so we decided to enjoy this day by going for a drive in the country side and enjoyed the changing leaves.
Came home around 3:30 p.m. and had a drink with Lise then it was dinner time.

End of the month already! WOW! We have 20 days left to our departure.
