Long Weekend by Susan L.
The Canada Day holiday is this weekend. There will be tides of people heading north to cottages, favorite camping spots and countless barbeques.
There's a seasonal trailer park behind my house full of people from Newfoundland. I'm pretty sure Saturday will be a rollicking good time. I enjoy the music but thankfully the owners don't let the noise go on much past 11:30. (Long gone are the days of partying until the wee hours of the morning!)
I am debating hosting a spur of the moment barbeque and bonfire for a few friends. It would be a bit of a scramble getting everything ready. We'll see.
Really, I'm just not fancying spending the holiday weekend on my own. Fred the cat (renamed Pumpkin) is good company but I don't think an open fire and roasting marshmallows would agree with his fur.
Besides, there's still a few fireflies around that I'd love to share.

Susan, it's Friendship Sunday at our church in Tottenham. Casual dress, casual service, BBQ afterwards. Why don't you come? No pressure, but if you'd like to join me let me know. I'm on my own this weekend as Paul has gone 2000 km north to Mish.
