Our summer hiatus is set to begin this week! This year we have a great deal planned for “our mental re-fresher”: biking and hiking, reading a few novels and a bundle of magazines, fun at a whole lot of fiddle events, and as much canoeing as we can manage. (I also plan on digging through my files of poetry for a few skeletons to exhume.) This being our first summer back in the Ottawa area in more than a decade, our Family is looking forward to the parklands, waterways and many festivals and City events. So, let the fun begin!
Through the next five-to-six weeks, By George urges you to stay connected via our Twitter and/or Facebook postings. We plan to irregularly post our whereabouts and top-o’-mind musings. (We will be back posting in the By George Journal in late August.)
As a parting post, we leave you with these summertime links to help you with the heat of the season.
