Dad came down for a nice long visit for the past week. We enjoyed wonderful visits and meals with Kerry, Max and I at our home and spent time all over Annapolis Royal for Natal day activities like the Farmer's Market.
Dad got to the Bay of Fundy and was inspired by one scene to make many sketches for a possible big painting this winter. The Annapolis Valley area is really the place that holds his heart.
Kerry helped make dinners of Jonathan's lobsters and Bay of Fundy scallops that I picked up from the fishmonger at the market. Max and dad hunted for crabs under the seaweed on our rocky beach. Max found a new use for my kitchen tongs---big crab grabbers for transporting to the "crab house".
Conversation flowed about family updates, future plans for fun, Keilor Bentley and the books Kerry has brought to read, one being the life of Picasso. My brother, Frank Forrestall made it down for a couple of days with his daughters Jessica and Gwen and Max is crazy about his cousins. Winkie and Miles came over one night and our table expanded to nine, although someone had to sit on a rocking chair. Miles' stories were hilarious, he is the absolute best story teller. His stories of "Little Joe" have to be written down. They are a short story or a book, to say the least.

Dinner at Cindy and Tom's (Farfetched owners) new Annapolis Royal cottage dinner Friday night was a delicious and amazing culinary and design journey to Thailand. Cindy is the most amazing cook, who has perfected Thai cooking with Annapolis Royal sourced ingredients.
