Canada Day !

We had a great weekend, Friday night we headed to the Old Church Theatre for music and woodfired pizza. I have blogged about the Old Church before, it’s a wonderful venue for entertainment and we go there pretty regularly. We had a great evening; Lloyd Spiegel was playing and he was terrific. He’s from Australia and not only is he a great singer/guitar player, he’s also very funny. He plays bluesy stuff and you should check him out if you have time. I bought one of his CD’s, And yes I’m one of those people who still buys/play CDs and records.

Along with some friends, beer and wood fired pizza, what more could you want?

Canada Day was Saturday, first of July ! (1867 – The Dominion of Canada is Created on July 1, when our country came to be). Clint and I headed down to the Belleville waterfront, on our bikes, for the Canada Day festivities. They had a Wild West Show, bands playing at the Amphitheatre all day, food booths, all kinds of stuff going on. Two bands I like were playing that day, we sat and listened to one of them, Big Black Smoke. They play all ’60’s music, right up my alley! Another group I like, FarSide, played later but we had already left to go to The Pier for a dacquiri. So we rode our bikes there and sat for a bit. It’s right on the water next to all the boats.

So the first photo is me and a giant Stuffie. I love stuffies, especially if they are life sized! This guy has to do with the Belleville Senators hockey team. I am not at my best, it was stinking hot and we were biking but there I am with my fuzzy buddy.

All in all, a pretty good weekend! And as I write this, it’s Monday 3 July, it’s still stinking hot! I think we are feeling like 35 Celsius today. Which is fahrenheit is about 95 Fahrenheit. We are supposed to be feeling like 38-39 Celsius the rest of the week…………..I’m already wilted lol.

Anyways, that’s it for me……………..Happy 4th of July to all my American friends on Tuesday!
