Mini family reunion time ..... it's been a while since my mom has had her three children together in one spot. My sister, Carol, lives in Tyler, Texas and doesn't get home often but managed to come for a week to visit and attend a wedding. I came up with the idea of meeting in Elora for dinner --- it's half way between Burlington and Walkerton and wasn't too far off Carol's route. Travelling with Carol was her husband Darryl, number two son Ted and granddaughter Sarah.

The way we really are.

Elora is a cute little town known for the gorge that runs through the area. Margaret looked at this photo and said her and Colin use to live right by the park and it was the house they were in when I met them. I have to admit I didn't remember the park --- guess I was in shock from meeting people who tie their child to a tree.

The Elora Mill Inn & Spa has a seating area that overlooks the water.

Interesting flower.

Friends from Kitchener came up for a visit and we decided to drive to Kincardine to see the sun set. Unfortunately, mother nature had other ideas --- we got to see Kincardine in the mist then the rain.

A couple of sail boats decided to come in before the storm hit.
