When the summer comes

Were getting settled in Barrie, sort of. Were living at a place that the owner has just bought and decided to renovate in his spare time (weekends). So were sitting on camping chairs and have a t.v. sitting on a coffee table that only gets 1 channel. Things are coming together though and were taking the extra time we have to explore our new surroundings, and I have time because Im still unemployed at this moment. So what better to do when you have no job? well go on a holiday of course. We left here last Friday on a road trip for a wedding in Cleveland Ohio. We took the route that went through Niagara and into Buffalo N.Y., Pennsylvania and then Ohio. Because we were pushing for time and the wedding party was already at a bar by time we got to Cleveland, we decided to change into more appropriate clothes in a very inappropriate location, the BP gas station parking lot. The wedding was good and the setting for the reception was just as good, a country club (not golf club) set in an old english style house in the forest surrounded by gardens and 20 tennis courts and an outdoor gym.

The rest of the weekend consisted of us driving via Detroit which was the opposite direction of where we'd come from to Andreas parents house because we were to go to dinner for her grandfathers 80th birthday.
After sponging off the parents for a couple of days and a round of golf later we finally made it home for Andrea to start work again and for me to keep looking for work.

The summer has kicked off just fine here, the heat has been turned up and the bodies are sprawling out on the sand along the lake side soaking up unnecessary sun rays.
Ive got 3 weeks of work starting this week with the Marine company i was supposed to work for when i got here, so things are doing ok for now. Leave a comment if you want to tell me about your summer/winter so far.
