June 27th and 28th

Friday June 27th, nice day in the 70’s no rain, my kind of day, we spent the day doing not much of anything, sitting outside reading, playing with Oreo, walking and doing a few of daily tasks, made a little fire in our fire pit, roasted some wieners and marshmallows, not exciting but a wonderful day. Woody is settling into quiet campground life, reading books has become one of his favourite past times.

June 28th
Today Woody spent time at a new archery shop he found out about from a friend over one hour drive from here, he took his bow in, had it set up properly, changed rests, paper tuned and sited in. The owner videotaped his shooting from behind him and in front of him (no, he was not in any danger), he spent most of day at the shop but came away happy with his new rest and more excited with his new bow than before if that was possible. The shop is Pipestone Creek Archery, just outside of Millet, AB, set up on an acreage with an indoor shooting range and access to a 3 D range, the owner, Jim is knowledgeable and serves his clients with the best quality service. I spent the day working on the computer, reading and playing with Oreo, three things I very much enjoy, when I get frustrated or tired of computer work or need a break from reading I take Oreo out for a walk/play, she gets lots of exercise I get a little, a nice break for both of us. The day was warm (84F or 28C) with a little shower so we turned the AC on to eliminate some of the humidity, sure is nice to have AC. During the evening, Woody visited with some neighbours (guys that are working in the area while working on a pipeline) who were interested in seeing his African pictures while I was happy to continue reading my book (one of those books that once you start you just cannot lay aside).
July 1st being Canada Day we figured the campground might get noisy with many folks taking the Monday off to create a 4 day weekend, not so it is busy but not noisy at all, we are very happy, the campground attracts good people.
