If I'd Known How Much Fun This Would Be I Would Of Had Grandkids First

The question was.....want to go shopping.....Clara's answer...YES!

So off to Canadian Tire we went with the 2 kids riding side saddle.  We got out indoor planting supplies.

                                                                               Nathan wanted to plant an onion to take home and watch it grow.  So he put in his own soil a tiny onion bulb in a cup with his name on it.
                                                           We still had lots of bulbs left over.
                                                           He carefully watered it.

He did one for Clara too.

Nana put hers in a large pot.  Then we put all three in the front room for the full morning sun.

Thursday morning after breakfast we decided to paint some of Papa's garden rocks.

Clara really got into this!

After we all had naps today we went to Jack Miner's to feed the geese.  Clara had no fear and chased the geese until they ate out of her cup.

She just loved it!

Clara didn't ever  want to leave.

Nathan waited patiently .....but not too many geese came his way.

We found a fun swing there.

We went into the viewing station.  Here you can see the entire pond where the wounded geese are treated.

It's actually quite large.


We went inside the museum and Nathan was especially smitten with this man Jack Miner who took care of all the geese.

Inside also was a bench just their size.

The children leaned about a famous baseball player who was great friends with Jack Miner.

The turkey raised his plumage just for US!

Then off to the park for some fun exercise.



We even hit the beach at lake Erie.

We ended our visit passing by Old Surf Side Three.  This  is where I spent my  every weekend as a teenager.  I haven't come back here for years. Wonderful dancing memories for me in this old building!!  Great way to end a fun day.
