On Wednesday we went to a geocache near Highway 401. It was very pretty, despite being so close to the road. We saw a rainbow and a porcupine. Later went to visit an old mill which has been restored. We’d like to go back one day and take the tour.
Thursday was my and Christine’s birthday. We spent the afternoon visiting Rheni. Then Celine joined us and we went out for dinner at Chez Piggy.
Yesterday Duncan asked us to go climbing with him again. Unfortunately, he set up his ropes on a route that was far too difficult for us. There was only one extra harness, and I let Celine take it. She climbed up a few meters and then couldn’t go any further. Duncan was pressed for time so I said I would wait until next time. Then we looked for a place on a cliff with less traffic to re-hide our geocache (it went missing).
Later on we went to a mill which hadn’t been restored. It was interesting to explore all the different rooms and buildings. Celine found one area where there had been a fire. There were lots of pretty flowers all around.
On the way home last night we found a fledgling crow on the road with an injured leg. We brought him home and gave him some peas to eat. In the morning we took him out onto the roof to sit in the sun, and he drank some water and ate some dog food. A bunch of seagulls came by for some food too, but we didn’t give them any. After lunch a wildlife rehabilitator from Howe Island came to pick the little guy up. She said she’ll take him to Napanee, where she knows somebody who is good with birds that have leg injuries.
