and I for one am not complaining! I am just not ready for winter this year. I'm not ready for the being inside, the heating bills, the ice and snow and cold. I want to bask in this glorious warmth ad sunshine for a few more months :)
On the plus side, though, I do have some family coming to visit in the next few months! I can't WAIT to see them all :D

So, to celebrate.....
to celebrate our 15th wedding anniversary, we went.... da da da....
Ziplining!!!!
and we also did eurobungee, which I thought looked like so much fun. I just don't even want to talk about LOL it was well, painfull! the harness cuts in and pinches places it shouldn't, well, 'nuff said.
The ziplining was a real mixture for me. Waiting, strapped to the line to zoom down, I was a bit scared, but made myself do it. The actual zipping part was fun, but over too quickly! The stop was rather abrupt, but not too bad. Overall, I want to do it again! I think I'd try canopy zipline, though, just for a change of pace.
at the top, a bit nervous:

Raccoon Rescue
Liam went out to check the mail, and ran back in breathless "Mom! There's a REAL raccoon out there!"
Sure enough, there was, and he was hurt

Number four!
Don't get too excited, it's only that I did number four on my "10 new things in 2010" goal!
Today, I drove a quad.
I never had even been on one before, and today I drove one. I went very slowly, and I was a bit scared, but I did it!
I wonder what will be next?

It's a buzzy, hazy lazy summer day
This is an absolute Ontario summer day. The heat bugs are buzzing, the cornfield is gently waving in the breeze, and the heat haze is on the horizon. It's a good old hit the water hole for a swim type of day!

Update on the chicken project
A quick picture of my nephew with one of the chickens~they are doing very well. Of the fifteen I started with, I've lost four. One passed the day we got them, two were killed by hens who attacked them in the coop, and one died of unknown causes.
They are getting quite big, and in a week or two I believe they'll be ready for the freezer!!
I actually am not having as easy a time with this as I had hoped, as the five that I hand raised are very tame and friendly, rushing to me when I open the coop. I keep repeating to myself "they are food, not friends!" It's alot easier when they come pre-frozen from Sobeys! :s
