Tuesday August 20, 2024 - Saskatchewan

We went to Regina to visit family from August 15 - 25. Visiting family is fun but it means I wasn't keeping my online diary up to date. So this post was actually written in late September, from my extremely sketchy notes. I debated whether to fill in these gaps. I guess you know my decision now.

It's a stonking hot day, 34C at least, but we spent all of it indoors, having coffee with Sharron, Shannon and Eleanor in an air conditioned coffee shop. And after a four hour coffee chat, we drove to Milky Way for ice cream and nearly passed out in line from the heat. It's a warm one, yes it is.

In the evening we went to visit Cin's dad and took him out to an inner courtyard at the home. There was a nice shade tree to sit him under and lots and lots of container plants. Flowers, tomatoes, even a cucumber. Most had been neglected for a while and were very stressed, so I found a hose and watering can and gave everything a good soak. Hopefully it spruces up a few of them, although many are too far gone.
