This picture was taken north of here, at Laurentian Lodge-- Our Daughter and her 2 children took us up there for dinner last evening-- I had the Pickerel and it was delicious-- There were very few people there, so we felt pretty safe eating inside their dining room. This lodge is about 30 miles north of us--north of the Mississaugi Provincial Park and situated on Flack Lake. They have beautiful cabins and a motel unit, overlooking Flack Lake---The dining room looked over this lake. It really felt good to eat out---first time in 3 years.
This picture was sent from Son#2, who left Toronto at 4am and was on the way North--to God's country--HERE!--He is going to camp for 2 nights, then hopefully will move in with us.----So, for once, in a long time, all family members will be home here!I guess he has arrived, as I see the Elliot Lake sign--The above picture is of the main beach in Elliot Lake-- with these 2 Grand boys (ours) on it--They are cousins--the same age!
It is busy to-day--of course--but--I had to check in with y'all to make sure that yer day is going well--I hope your heart is a happy heart to-day-- and if it's not, make it a happy heart--Only YOU can do that!
How fun to have everyone together! Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteSon #2 is moving in with you & Fred?? That would be awesome, it would help take some of the work & worry off your shoulders. I think it's great with grown children help their parents. I hope I did not misinterpret what you wrote about this Lynda, it's just that I'd be so happy if you didn't have to cope with everything yourself.
ReplyDeleteLove the nice restaurant your daughter took you to last night, what a lovely treat!
Love and hugs to you, Fred, family and also your fur babies xoxo
No Gloria--Son#2 is not moving in with us--It is wonderful to have son #2 here and our daughter but it is only for this week-- Lynda
Deleteawwwww, so happy you'll have the whole family together! Enjoy.

That is a beautiful looking lake. So nice that your daughter took you and Himself out to eat. What a treat after 3 years. I hope things are going well with her. Enjoy your day and all the memories you are making with your family.
ReplyDeleteSuch nice pictures! So glad you could venture out! Glad your other son is coming, so everyone can be together for awhile. Makes you happy to have that happen.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful place to have dinner and how nice of your daughter to take you. We haven't yet been out for dinner but have done breakfast a couple of times. I sure do miss it!
ReplyDeleteSo glad daughter took you 2 out for a lovely dinner in a safe environment. I DO HOPE things are going well with your daughter. I know you can't wait to have ALL your kids home and grands running about. You'll be exhausted but happy.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures. Thank you for sharing.
Have a great day and a happy heart
Hugs
Ahh! Sweet family time! Thank you for checking in! It is appreciated! Have a wonderful weekend, Lynda!:)
ReplyDeleteI love, love, love that you are having a wonderful family time! You definitely deserve some down-time to simply enjoy life! ❤️Eissa7
ReplyDeleteIt was a busy day here, but yours looks positively packed with loved ones around you and Himself. Soak it in for future memories! Hope it's a fine family weekend for you all.
ReplyDeleteSo nice of your daughter to take you guys out for a great dinner.
ReplyDeleteglad son #2 will soon be there and you'll have to whole family there. Sounds like himself is having good days while all are there. Looks like happy times. Enjoy them.
What fun times it looks like you are having, so happy for you! Enjoy to the fullest. What a lovely place that looks like, I looked it up. Wow, I can't imagine not having eaten out in 3 years, I've eaten out as usual all these three years and have felt safe. Maybe I'm one of those who doesn't catch COVID, knock on wood, but I haven't had it. I've had all my shots and boosters. I hope I continue to be fortunate! :)

ReplyDeleteSo wonderful to have all of your family together! I was fortunate too! Had all four of my kids here on Sat and we got to have a family pic taken! I am feeling a little sad as I took my youngest son and his family to the airport tonight. They are on their way back to CA! Having a large family is wonderful, but hard to get them all together! First family pic since we lost our wonderful papa George! I miss him sooooo much!
Glad you are having a great visit with your family.
ReplyDeleteLove your inspirational words!
ReplyDeleteIt's a dream of mine to get all of us together...from CA, IL and MN. We're thinking next summer in the Dells area...WI :-)
Inknow you realize how lucky you both are. Really happy you had a good outing...gou both deserve it! {{{HUGS}}}
I'm glad you enjoyed your meal out!
