Today is my mother's 93rd birthday and we are meeting my mother, brother, cousin and cousin's husband for lunch in New Dundee (just west of Kitchener, about an hour and a half drive).

Our route took us past Harriston and the site of the IPM that was in the process of being dismantled.

This was the campground.

The photo was taken a fair distance away but this was the exhibition area. Not only was it a lot of work to put up but it also took a about a week to dismantling.

What do you do with the candle when the birthday girl orders a fruit cup? Cut a strawberry in half and stick the candle in it. I think my mother had a great time.
