Back to School

The end of the month is coming and soon the summer will be ended. And then back to school...

Toronto Metro Zoo

     Yesterday we went to the Toronto Metro Zoo. The younger children enjoyed it very much and our German guest, Michael, seemed to, too. We saw African penguins(very cute!), polar bears(the baby was very playful and one of the adults was active,other than that it was too hot probably) ,and creatures that came from the Americas.

Summer Visitors and Gardening

     Well,it has been a while again and we have been very busy. We have our first visitor of the summer, who arrived on Tuesday. He seems to enjoy staying here and we are very glad about that.
     And we have lots of garden work; especially, picking potato bugs. We don't have very much rain, but hopefully it will shower alittle. Watering is now one of the daily, outdoor chores around here: trees, all sorts of plants, the grass, etc.,....
