School would start next Tuesday. The boys spent a last day with Grandpa, Barbara
and Grant. We decided to make our lunches and then visit Grandpa’s boyhood
fishing spot on the Rideau River to try out Grandpa’s new iBobber. Of course,
Sam found a tree to climb.
After lunch we hiked along the river to Brantwood Park and
the boys had fun trying out the play equipment.
We talked about the
meaning of “Rideau” River and explained that the where the river flowed into
the Ottawa River the falls looked like a large “curtain”. We decided to go and have a look. The boys were very impressed by the size of
the falls and the on-site artillery guns.
Our day ended with a
barbeque at 9 Lambert complete with ice cream treats.
