Joe picked up the boards to put the frame in for the deck. Got the frame together with Joey's help once he got home from school.
We stopped to have lunch at Jardin Nelson where we met Kate. It is a great restaurant with a huge outside garden. Food and sangria were both very good. The boys got half the deck finished and then quit for the day. It is quite nice up there and I am sure Joey and Kate will get a lot of use out of it.
June 9th and Joe's birthday. We all wished him a happy birthday and Laurie and Rob bought us a new cell phone for our birthdays. We got a Gravity T from Bell and I am still working at figuring it out. But is is really nice with the slide out keyboard.
Now the floor of the deck is finished and the boys are working on a pergola.
June 10/11
The boys finished the deck and the pergola. I and I believe Kate am very impressed. It looks great and now it is nice and secure. We sat on two new folding chairs (the girls that is) and enjoyed a glass of wine or beer as the case may be. The boys watched sports (the hockey game) on the TV Joey hooked up outside, Kate made us appetizers and Pizza (what a girl!) and I played a word game on my Kindle reader. Life is good.
June 11/11
Joey want some more wood to add to the top of the pergola, some lattice and more wood to make a planter and storage bench. Can't wait to see how it all works out. Kate is going to plant some vines to go up the sides and top.
We left Montreal in the late morning and are now in Rimouski at the Hotel Rimouski. What a beautiful hotel. We got a suite which is gorgeous and it has a bar and restaurant. Guess you know where we are off to now.
