We went to a local park in Winnipeg this weekend (Assiniboine Park)-

I liked how the vines were held up over the plants.


The original Winnie the Pooh was named by the owner for Winnipeg.

Day 212



More rain, and it is supposed to rain until Monday.


We went into the city to buy milk and there was a lot more water (the grocery store was even closed due to flooding). Weeks with no rain, and now lots!


Hopefully things will be fine for the farmers.

I spray painted an old metal table today (I should have taken a before picture - it was very chipped and rusty, it is over 50 years old). It will be ready to put back together tomorrow.

A bit of rain today, big drops - just enough to wet the ground. 
It was 34℃ today and the drops were drying up on the patio right away.

Our home - August 2014

A couple of weeks with no rain, things are getting dry, but we have been enjoying a lovely hot summer (lots of pictures, because it doesn't last long!).
