Happy Canada Day Everyone

Anyone have Canada Day plans for today?
I'm house-sitting in New Minas for the weekend (house comes with 15 year old nephew), but there don't seem to be any festivities planned in the immediate area. Guess that I will be staying home making full use of the unfettered internet access...not that I particularly mind. Usually I will have to bike (or drive if the car is not in use) to the library in Lawrencetown for internet access, about 5 miles (or is it km?) from my parents' house. Luckily the old rail bed has been converted to a great recreational trail that runs to Lawrencetown and beyond, and I have an access point near the house. I can easily do some birding by bike and hopefully grab a few more glimpses of the lynx that inhabits the area.
As for other plans today, I think I might just crawl back into bed with a novel, while later I might wander out to the patio to continue reading and/or surfing.
Hope everyone has a great weekend.

Hi Maryann! Love your blog. Good idea. Love your backyard. Drool. We made cake for Canada's birthday. Luke's first double decker chocolate. He was suitably impressed. I've thought of a feature for your blog. A thesis-words-per-day counter. New words. I just read "Bird by Bird Gardening" by Sally Roth. Very fun. I am now coveting a solar powered bird bath fountain. (attracts cardinals). Have fun!
