HOME SWEET HOME!

Well I finally made it home yesterday! I was supposed to leave on Monday afternoon at around 3.15pm. We (Dave Sr., Leslie and I) left St. Catharines only to discover that the Queenston/Lewiston Bridge was backed up due to some construction. We waited for about 45 minutes, and then again before entering customs! Well, we got through with no problems, but soon found ourselves taking the long way around Buffalo (we missed the exit) to the airport. I was dropped off, checked my bags curbside and proceeded through more security. When I got to my gate, I over heard a man talking on his cell phone (really really loud!) saying that our plane had been delayed 3 hours! To break it down for y'all, my flight was now to leave at 6.00pm (not 3.15pm) which meant that I would miss my connecting flight to College Station from Dallas, that was scheduled to depart at 6.35pm. The guy at the counter said that he could get me into Dallas or Houston but there would be no guarantees that I would make it to College Station! So I decided that I would take the early flight Tuesday morning, giving me extra time to play around with if there were more delays Tuesday. Debbie came to pick me up and we drove back to St. Catharines, only to leave the next morning (with my dad) at 4.15am! Everything worked out well and I'm now safe at home!

With all that being said, my time in Ontario was great. After Dave left I went to Happy Rolph's Petting Zoo with Owen, Sammy and Simon and Becky, Jessica, Karen and Debbie. It was alot of fun! Owen got to see Camels (which are really llamas!)

I also had the enjoyable pleasure of going to Ribfest at Montebello Park! Dave and I have a friend that works at a both, THE SILVER BULLET, and he gave me a free rack of ribs! We listened to some great music, and saw some familiar faces.

On August 3rd Dave & Pauline (my brother and sister in law) and Kristi (my sister) came to visit. We had a great time together we laughed alot, ate alot and shopped alot! My cousin Julianne got married on August 6th so we all helped get things ready for her big day! The wedding a really nice. Pictures to come at a later date!

So that was a little synopsis of my time in Ontario.
