Art at the Marina

Art at the Marina in Leamington kicked off as it usually does - brutal heat and humidity, coupled with the annual invasion of the fish flies. Friday night setup was a sweaty one, followed by beers and burgers with Dan and Heather at nearby Chuck's Roadhouse.

Saturday was equally sweltering, with Jane bringing her trusty 4 L frozen water bottle to hug as the need arose to keep her core temperature within reason. After helping with setup, I returned home to cut grass and address other housework and yardwork, before returning to pick Jane up.

Sunday was a beautiful day, and lacking the humidity of the previous two days. After a late breakfast of gourmet grilled cheese (or toasted meat sandwich for Jane), we opened again for business. The crowds returned and sales were brisk!

After waiting patiently to get the van close enough to load up, we found ourselves as usual at Renny's. Unfortunately, the patio was already full.....but given that we had several several folding tables in the van, owner Erika allowed us to add a table to the patio, right in front of the band!

We caused quite the commotion, walking into the patio and slapping up a table in front of a throng of strangers.....hey, the owner said we could! Dan and Heather joined us again for some cold Purity Pilsners and some delicious hot smoked brisket and perch po'boys.

HAPPY CANADA DAY!!!

BYOT!
