The end to my summer vacation went quickly but was a lot of fun! I took a day-trip to Toronto Island with my dad where we rented a 2-seater quadricycle and got the butt-kicking of a lifetime...it's not so easy peddling those contraptions.
The best cultural event of the summer was the Hamilton Fringe Festival. I had a chance to see 6 plays at the Downtown Arts Centre. My top two were "Human Brilliance to the 22nd Century" and "How Does a Drug Deal Become a Third Decent Date?"
My mom and I had a chance to visit the old family cottage and drop in on the best place to eat in Elora, the Desert Rose Cafe.
I caught Valerie Tryon at the final Fieldcote Music evening. She played "Flight of the Bumblebee" as bats flew above the audience.
In Guelph I investigated site-specific locations for a possible dance project. Here are two ideas: this grouping of trees:
or this sturdy trio.
This past weekend I attended Christie's Antique Show. There were so many beautiful things and unbelievably well-behaved children. I guess they had interesting things to look at, so they were calm? The strangest thing I saw was this:
and don't you just love this bench? It was snapped up right away.
On the first day back to school, I was outside with my class and we spotted a woodpecker. A good omen I think. It's definitely not a Pileated woodpecker, maybe it's a Downy?
