Bonnie: We made it back to our apartment in good time, arriving here about 3:30. We even took a short tour of North Bay on the way  home. We then went for a walk which felt good after being in the car for so long. Next was the shopping which can be disheartening because everything is so expensive! There will be a pot luck Sunday and I want to have the Elders over one day next week. I needed lots of groceries. Oh, well. Such is missionary life!
Tomorrow I hope to go raspberry picking in the morning. I understand that it has not been a very good berry season this summer because of all of the heat. But it's worth a try. Then, we hope to see one of our less-actives. Hopefully she has read some of the Book Mormon and we can teach her a "lesson". It would be great if she could come to church Sunday.
Until tomorrow,
Love,  Mom/Bonnie

Bob: Not much left to say. We did stop in North Bay at a conservation area on the shores of Lake Nipissing. It was only 63 degrees per the car temperature and the wind was blowing. So Bonnie decided to stay in the car. I walked up to the lake's edge. Several ducks and gulls were there. Put a couple of pictures below.
After, we stopped at Dairy Queen for a treat for Bonnie and at Wendy's for my frosty.
Tonight we are watching 2 Murdoch mysteries to get caught up for Wednesday and Thursday.
Hope everyone has a great weekend. Love to all and good night brothers.
