I am very blessed with a delightful family even if we can't see each other as often as we would like, wonderful friends who bring me joy, the fortunate position that our jobs are relatively secure, that we live in a country that is doing pretty well with respect to keeping our people safe, and that we have become more aware of those segments of society that are NOT kept safe and we are trying to rectify that. I am hopeful that the awakening that has accelerated during these times of forced introspection continues and is a lasting legacy to the younger generation.
We had a great Covid-Thanksgiving. Although we were unable to visit with our family, we had a delicious outdoor Thanksgiving dinner with our Toronto bubble on Saturday afternoon. Lots of food, conversation, and music.
David was super excited for outdoor Thanksgiving. No pants or shoes but he did have his mask!
On Sunday we enjoyed a socially distant visit in the backyard. We opted to order in dinner from a local restaurant as a show of support for small businesses that must shut down with very little notice and full freezers! Cumin Kitchen provided a feast that the whole family enjoyed.
On the holiday Monday we arrived just before 9am at Rouge National Park for an 8.5km family hike.
Chris was dressed for adventure!
I was very thankful that we got to the park before 9am. By the time we left, the trails were crowded enough that masks were a good idea and there was a traffic jam looking for parking!

Happy Thanksgiving!! Love the photos: I can smell the fresh Canadian air and just imagine walking with you :)!
Can you also hear the near constant stream of consciousness chatter from one of my cherubs? And the competitive sniping between 2 brothers increasing along with the kilometres? LOL
Miss you guys!
