This has to have been one of the busiest month of July spans on record for us! So much going on as July started in London, UK, levelled out in Canso for Stanfest ’24 shenanigans, and ended with a blast through the good ol’ USofA. I averaged over 16,000 steps a day and spent 13 nights @camplumsden. It was hard to keep up but I’m beginning to think that works best for us 😂.
For July I thought I might just drop in a few highlight moments… it seems the simplest way to recount this time around. Below are perhaps a few of the stand outs this month….
- Sitting, in awe, at St Giles Cathedral on Edinburgh’s Royal Mile.
- Experiencing the throngs of revellers at the London Pride Parade.
- Talking with Paige and Josie in Westminster, while standing amidst the Thames, London Eye and Big Ben
- The quiet of a morning coffee ☕️ and cemetery visit with Ms Lumsden in our little Berlin neighborhood.
- Any one of the countless spectacular sunrise boat rides on Smelt Lake.
- A 29th Anniversary road trip and beach lunch at Taylor Head Provincial Park…
- The immense pride in our family’s Stanfest effort this year ❤️… 100’s of rock solid hours “doing”
- Singing Stan, Fraggle Rock, sore hands, it goes on and on. We end the month with full hearts
If nothing else, we surely understand our good fortune. In excellent health, we have been able to live our best lives, both at home and abroad! Luck, hard work, knowledge… I’m not sure if one or all of these have been factors, but we live a charmed existence and are eternally grateful 🥹!
