Well, we did some decorating around our place for Canada Day.. saw one neighbor with a flag out, and another on another street, but really felt there wasn't much happening as far as the whole decorating went. I even got myself a Canada Day t shirt. What I heard at the salon though today was one girl said she was conflicted to wear red/ white/ Canada flag.. over the wearing the orange t -shirt for honoring the Indigenous children who went away to residential schools in the past and never returned home. So she didn't wear either.
We did still go out for Canada Day though, and alot of others in the city did as well. Went to see the Pioneer Village within the stampede grounds that is only open during certain times of the year. Had Canada Day cake, did some walking around and took in the fireworks at 11. If you follow me on Instagram you can see a few of my videos there from the day's events.
The renovations have been continuing as well..
Gerry put in a new window recently. We had a few older aluminum windows in the house still from the previous owners so been upgrading those. The fencing is in and we will be building that higher fence soon, but also Gerry built a new closet for the basement bedroom, which usually is where our daughter stays when she comes here. ( Still needs some finishing though on it). She's also decided she wants us to keep the dated wallpaper and says she likes the retro look.
