Guess Who’s Visiting.

It all starts with a little email asking if I know of any B&Bs in town that are less than $165/night.

“Don’t be silly”, I reply. And that’s how the March of Visitors begins.

Ted & Sue will be staying with us until Saturday for Canada Blooms and a Co-housing conference up in Bolton.

With barely enough time for the guest couch to get cold, the March of friends continues. Mom arrives Sunday for her annual March Break trip to Toronto.

We’re planning to swing by Rannie’s Portraits in the Park show, Ger & mom will hit the Frank Gehry exhibit at the AGO, likely we’ll eat out a little, and probably have some very very long talks about nothing in particular and everything in general. I can’t wait.

Just a little over a week after mom heads home, our friend Ron will be visiting from Ottawa. That generally means more good food and more silliness is in the offing.

Then mere moments after that another Ottawa friend is in town, this time staying elsewhere. So we’re really only expected for dinner.

It’s as if the flood gates of friends have burst open. It’s great!

    Hey Lex
    If you’re looking for something to do – go check out The Rochdale Project at Theatre Passe Muraille. Yes this is shamless promotion – my brother is in the cast and is a founding member of the Rochdale collective.

    Vicki,
    shameless sibling promotion is a GOOD thing. I love hearing about projects that friends and family are involved in. I wish more people would tell me what they are up to!
    thanks, we’ll check it out
