Aug 16, 2019-looking for our Summer

Hello, it's been awhile since I have updated....not sure what has me busy, but the days seem to be flying by.  Our summer has been a bit wet, my sister says it's been her worst summer, since she has moved here to Alberta, any moons ago....=) One thing that is happy for the rain, is the grass/plants, and forest.  We have mushrooms, growing all over our yards.
  I have been enjoying Rhubarb from our yard and my neighbor gave me the go ahead to use theirs as well.  Also just started picking their Raspberries....I had to first pin them back, because the bushes were laying on the ground.  I did, get gifted some raspberries plants from another neighbor and they are planted we will see if they come back next year.
I have been busy making a flower bed in the back yard, earlier in the season.  Last weekend it took me 2 days to weed out the grass and weeds growing in me beds, but my plants are growing nicely and I hope for divide some of my plants next spring and buy some new ones as well....=)
  I was going to make a water fixiture in our yard, but decided to buy one at Homedept we can move with us.  
We did take a Griswold vacation, we took the road to Saskatoon, then back to Drumheller https://www.dinosaurvalley.com  and we took a self guided tour at High River hoping to see filming on Heartland, http://heritageinn.net/locations/high-river-ab/blog/high-river-home-of-heartland then we had a few days at the Calgary Stampede https://www.calgarystampede.com/
We did some shopping in Edmonton, on our round trip, back home. 













That's our summer in a nut shell...it's not over, hoping the sun stays around and we can enjoy!!
