So on Friday morning, we headed out after breakfast and picked up our friend from church, Jon. We had an awesome car trip up, sharing stories, laughs, prayers...and a Bible study...which oddly enough Jon said he had a feeling we were going to do, though we've never done it before in the car! God works in mysterious ways.
When we got to Ottawa, we stopped at MEC so Marianne could buy a backpack she's wanted for a while (like a long while). And it was pretty inexpensive too! Jon was happy to join, and pick up a purchase of his own.
Can you smell them?
Mom gave Dad this really neat bird watching book that actually plays the various songs (and squawks!) of various birds of North America. We had quite a nice leafing through and listening to it!
And then it was time to go! Thanks to Marianne's Mom and Dad for a really nice weekend. Looking forward to a longer visit in September.
