Tuesday started out as a normal Tuesday, with early breakfast, shopping for groceries for the week, then prepping and making almost 100 litres of chili for supper. At 4:30 p.m., when we were ready to serve, the dining hall was filled with people lined up, waiting to eat.

It’s strange how odd things happen when you take a little holiday. We just had a nice few days “vay-cay” where there was some water and sunshine and some large hills pretending to be mountains. It was very relaxing and a lovely way to recharge our batteries. On our phones and iPad. But it was at the pool where things got a little silly.
