Rained out!

Graham had a ball game tonight but we got there and the skies opened up...thankfully we had the golf umbrellas with us, Mom and I huddled under one and Mike under the other one, the kids were in the dug out. Thunder and lightning arrived and I went and pulled my son out of the dugout and put him in the car. The game was cancelled because the field is on clay and the field flooded in a matter of minutes, they would not have played in the lightning anyway. I wanted to get home because I was concerned about Elysia being home by herself in the thunder and lightning...we didn't get a drop at our house. Strange weather weekend. A quick storm came through yesterday and hit the Michelin plant in Waterville and a house in Port Williams.

We got the lawn mowed and whipper snipped today so it looks nice. Need a new rain gutter in the front though, it spills over and makes quite the puddle in heavy rain.

Both kids are playing at the Lockhart Ryan field tomorrow, Elysia has a soccer game and Graham has a baseball game...need to be there for 5:30 for Elysia so it's a quick run home and grab the kids and go type of night...fun, fun.

Mike starts his vacation next weekend, he's off for two weeks. He's taking the kids to Cape Breton to visit the family. Elysia and Graham are very excited about it. I will be by myself, which never happens and I am thinking I will not like it a whole lot. There will be a whole lot of my life travelling without me...
