With my dear friends at Merrickville

The trip to Merrickville that I talked about in my previous posts was actually to spend some time with my two really good friends. These two women were the ones who brought me back to life from my accident - they brought food for me, they held my hand when I found out about my blood clot, they comforted me when I needed someone's support so much, they were beside me all the way.
Louise and Suzanne, thank you for being in my life. You are amazing and I love you!
This was the view from the restaurant we had lunch at that day. I found it interesting that instead of having a regular sign on the side of the building, they put it across the restaurant and used an upside-down canoe to advertise themselves. 
And this was a bench where we spent a significant time of that day. There is nothing special about it, but it caught my eye as somehow to me it seemed to represent a place to share your life with your closest and dearest friends.

"Shop"-seeing in Merrickville

While in Merrickville, I couldn't pass the opportunity to do a little bit of sight-seeing/shopping.
This image below is a beautiful antique leather rocking chair.
These are wooden sculptures. I took this picture at a sculpture school and many of those are still in progress.
These are canoe paddles (which can be also used as disciplinary instrument for your misbehaving husband... heh)
This is my future house downsizing (joking!)
This is hand-made wooden furniture, which I love so much.

Merrickville trip

Last Saturday (Aug. 6) I went to Merrickville for a day trip with my very close friends. I've been there before quite few times, but I always found it such an inviting, friendly, homey town that is a pleasure to come back to any time. Here is what it looks like:
