    Knock.. yes, there will be a lot of work to do even if she is in the water..but heck, I've got a house to stay in in Mahone Bay.. I've got the paint and the varnish.
    When I mentioned the date I wanted, Cecil didn't even hem and haw..

    psss. it is nice to think that things are winding down.

    Ordered the tent Gareth.. but did not expect so many gate crashers.
    Invitations are not even written yet.
    Then again, Mahone Bay is a wee tad quiet in the winter.. Umm, June..umm.. good time for a party.
