Back in Guelph. We were going to go the John McCrae house (in Flanders Fields guy) but Anne just informed us she has to get to Kitchener before 5 p.m. because she hasn't yet signed up for Ontario health care and needs it before she leaves for Wales on Monday.
Yesterday was another long day of driving but we had a nice visit with Tony and Ruth Ferrey, they are such good people and seemed really glad to see us. They have two houses so we visited with them in both! It was 4 or so hours drive after that. Geoff broke his glasses while we were there so had to wear sunglasses all the way back. But he got his prescription faxed from Rocky to a Lens Crafters so we will pick up his new glasses after we get back from Kitchener I guess.
I think our holidays are always too short, there never seems time to just do nothing. Well, maybe we can have some quiet time tomorrow. We go to Niagara Falls, are staying in a B&B in Queenston, right by Niagara-on-the-Lake. Flight on Sunday doesn't leave till around 7 p.m. so will have time to look around.
The weather in Ottawa was nice but it has been rainy here most of the time. Still warm though.

For someone doing their PhD, she is not very paperwork oriented.
I wa just watching the weather network, and they said that Ontario has had crazy weather this year, with many changes during the day. sounds kind of like Alberta weather.
I enjoyed Niagara Falls when I was there a couple of years ago. They have great fireworks over the falls.
Professors are SUPPOSED to be absent-minded.
And we spent pretty much every morning just laying around last week... plus we mostly stayed home on the rainy days.
Well, since the days of cutbacks, professors actually have less administrative support, and generally work 80-hour weeks, so they may be done ill by being absent-minded.
