The first meal in the new dining room - catered by the Johnsons
At lunchtime on Thursday, Di and I were thrilled to have Cathy and Peter Johnson arrive with a magnificent platter of sandwiches as well as carrots, pickles, wine, juice and home-made cookies. A fantastic meal that Cathy insisted was just a picnic. All I can say is that the first meal in our new cottage was a veritable and delicious feast where glasses were again raised and toasts made.
Heather Calhoun arrived about the same time and Sue Garland came back from Montreal a little later, so many more boxes were unpacked that afternoon. We stored things as best we could considering that shelves and cupboards were being constructed around us as we worked. Nonetheless, great progess was made and we'll let the pictures speak for themselves.
Meanwhile, I would like to mention that I don't know what I would have (or could have) done without all the support and help from everyone involved - including all those of you who called, emailed, thought of us and sent good karma.
