Ontario Diary - Day Six ...

The intention for the day was to get up early and head up the highway to Hanover Ontario to attend Sunday morning worship at Grace United Church where I had been a student in the spring and summer of 1992 ... The intention was to do that ...

When the alarm clock on my cel phone went off at 7am, I got up - looked at it - and promptly turned it off and went back to sleep ... I woke again at 10:15 to Ms H whispering - "Dad, is it time to get up for Church ??"

I told her it was too late to get there and rolled over and went back to sleep yet again ...

Instead of a road trip to Hanover, we went to Tavistock Ontario where we visited with my dad's last surviving brother - Bruce. Bruce (aka Farmer) was in fine form and was thoroughly entertaining and enjoyed visiting with his grand-nieces and nephew, and in return, we enjoyed visiting with him. After our visit with Uncle Bruce, we headed back to Stratford and just hung out at Grandma's to welcome in the New Year ... we were so exciting ... Grandma and the kids watched tv until the Ball Dropped in Times Square and 2007 began ... Shortly thereafter, it was bed time ...

Not an exciting day, but after the last couple a rest was needed ... and the rest was appreciated.
