Yesterday we went to Niagara-on-the-Lake with our friends, Mary and Jim, to see a matinee performance of "Enchanted April" at the Shaw Festival. I knew it would be the perfect place to get a shot of a theater for performing arts (#2).
(Looking in at the posters with the reflection from the window)
I knew we'd be going to our favorite pub (#18), The Irish Harp, for lunch.
I didn't expect to find an intentionally funny sign (#7), but there it was outside the pub.
But I did know, the clock tower on main street would qualify for #8.
I'm now officially half way through with the scavenger hunt. I know where to find a few of those items left on the list, but I'm going to have to search for the rest.
When we returned home last night, I went up to the hospital. Mike had bypass/valve replacement surgery yesterday (in the OR for about 8 hours), and had just come out of the operating room. Once again it was touch and go all night, but he stabilized this morning, and was again in the OR for some clean-up this afternoon. The surgeries have all been successful. There's one more to go---probably Friday to disconnect the ECMO machine and reconnect the chest bones. It's really been an ordeal, but his family and I so appreciate your thoughts and prayers. We hope we're now on the road to recovery.
