Kenya and Oma: Vagabonds for the Summer

I have begun to plan our summer as nomads.

I think we will spend the first week of July near Montreal with Maureen and Jeff, and then spend three days traveling to Nova Scotia, stopping in Riviere du Loup and Moncton at pet friendly hotels.

Then a month with Kerry, Maurice and Sam ... half of which will also be with the rest of the family. Kerry and I will see Ami McKay's play at the Two Planks Theatre near Wolfville.

Then I will head back by the same route, stopping along the way as before, and end up for a few days with Rob and Scott in Lanark.

Then on to Orangeville to see Deb, Rob and the kids for about a week.

And then to Haliburton to spend time with Linda, Bob and Atticus.

A quick stop in Peterborough to see Claire after all these years.

And back to Wakefield.

By then it will be the end of August ... and I will either move back home to the hermitage or stay at Tanya's on the lake or with Marta in Ottawa or Tammy and Carlos in Hull. In any event my home will be my own in mid-September.

I am feeling a little uneasy about it all ... it is a long time to be away and I will need to make my plans carefully ... but I am also looking forward to the adventure of being on the road with Kenya for two months or so.

Couldn't ask for a more compatible companion than Kenya. She has shared both my homelessness and my hermitage in the past two years.
