Good Excuse for a Visit

We headed up to the Barrie/Orillia area for an overdue round of visits, predicated on tickets to see Matthew Good play an acoustic show inside a church (and St. Paul's Centre music venue) in downtown Orillia. 

The show was awesome, though Mr. Good was into the bourbon and did wander off into some political or moral meanderings throughout the performance. His vocals and guitar were pretty sharp though, and the Australian-Canadian opening act was also good. We were even able to enjoy a beer inside a church!

We visited with Keith and Ashley, and also met up with my dad for lunch. Due to some unfortunate circumstances, another childhood friend was in town from his usual life in British Columbia, and we were able to catch up with him as well.

The Simcoe County area in general was also resplendent with gorgeous fall foliage....one of the few things we miss! On our way back south, we also spent some time with good friends in Utopia - and yes, it was as good a visit as that sounds!

Stella and Stained Glass - sacrilicious!

Matthew puts on a Good show!
