WASAGA BEACH

We enjoyed our short road trip and a chance to see family and friends we hadn't seen in quite a while. Another bonus was going back to see places we hung out at when we were kids.



Our first stop was to see our friends Wayne and Barb. We don't get to see them often but we always have a good time whenever we do. Wayne is on the waiting list for new lungs so please lift him in prayer whenever you think of him. It is amazing how many lives can be saved if we would just inform our loved ones of our wishes to have our organs donated when we die. 



This is Wasaga Beach the longest sandy beach on fresh water in the world. It has always been a haven for kids and when we rented a cottage here back in the 50s they allowed cars to drive along the beach. That has all changed and everything is very controlled.




If there are kids around there needs to be lots of places to spend their money. Wasaga has the usual arcades, clothing shops, diving shops and sports equipment shops.  It's "party central" for the kids from Toronto throughout the summer. 

It's sunny and cool here this morning. We are off to Maynooth later for the "Farmers' Market" while Mary is going to another "Quilting Class" today. This evening we hope to see "Chimney Swifts" fly down a local chimney as they come home to roost. I'll let you know tomorrow what we see.

Thanks for stopping by. Safe travels
