Colourful Wedding

Autumn arrived early, with late August into early September featuring warm days with cool nights that persisted throughout most of the month - our favourite time of year! Birds and butterflies were everywhere as tomato wagon continued to roll.

We managed to make a Sunday night concert at Two Creeks, to see The Mudmen for the first time in forever - unfortunately, one of the Campbell brothers had broken his ankle, so it was The Mudman! They were still really good, though the new singer's country background definitely added a bit of a twang to their Celtic sound.

With Vincent still requiring management for his diabetes, we cancelled plans to spend an autumn week back at the cabin with Keith and Ashley. Luckily, Keith was able to come and visit instead, and spent the week with us relaxing and hanging out on the back deck amid some great fall weather.

We did board Vincent at Noah's Ark to make a quick overnight trip to Barrie to visit our friends and plan another joint vacation for the spring.  :)

Since he did so well, we boarded him again for a few nights later in the month, so that we could head to eastern Ontario and attend my niece's wedding. What a perfect day for an outdoor wedding, on a beautiful horse farm owned by my sister's friend. We got to visit and catch up with a bunch of folks, enjoy the fall colours, and witness the marriage of two very special young people. 

We mainly took full advantage of the stunning seasonal conditions to get a lot of work done around the yard, including an overdue round of tree trimming resulting in a van-load of brush to the yard waste depot.
