Tammy is back in Sudbury, and I’m back at my trailer. We drove up on Saturday, and back to Ottawa on Sunday. That’s about 650kms each way. Since I don’t drive, that’s a lot of driving for Lynn. From the get-go, we planned on stopping at the trailer on the way home. Officially, it’s to save Lynn the extra hour and change to drive all the way to the other side of Ottawa, really we just wanted some trailer time.

I was up and out on my deck by 7am, Lynn may have slept a little later. So I sat out here and enjoyed the cool, early morning breeze and watched chipmunks and birds in my yard. I read for a while, then took a little nap in the shade. When my shade went away I went inside and read for while before taking another nap. After that, I made a late lunch for Lynn and I.

Now I’m back out on my deck. The day is still hot, but under the awning there’s just enough breeze to make it pleasant. The only question now is, “Do we go home tonight or wait until morning?”

I haven’t been able to get up here for a while, and I won’t be back until mid-month. I think I should stay to the last possible moment. It is so peaceful here. We both feel renewed when we go back into town and back to the “real world”. I’m okay with getting up early if it means I get to enjoy a little more trailer time.
