Canada Day BBQ

All over the country people were gathering to celebrate Canada Day. Watching the news last night, I saw that the party in Ottawa was quite an extravaganza. Native born and immigrant, everyone was
celebrating this grand country we live in.
Here in our corner of the country we celebrated too
although, a little more low key.
We invited a few friends,Harv cooked up coconut prawns,We BBQ'd farmer sausage and hotdogs, had some lovely salads and finished up with hot fudge sundaes and fresh, local raspberries.
And we played a little bocci ball. .

A good evening full of thankfulness : for family, for friends and for this wonderful country in which we have so much: beauty, safety and material comforts; freedom to travel, to worship and to voice our opinions.
None of these things, do we take for granted.

Aren't we lucky to have special groups of friends?
What a perfect way to celebrate.
