Where are we today ?
clic a pic to enlarge it
       Was right around freezing over night and did not get much above 36F (2C) all day. Now most of the morning we had more snow ! hmm.. But I did a few country drives around the area just cause I could.
the road's aren't too bad just blowing and a few icy spots 

following the plow putting salt on the roads
Back home a bit later to pick up Suzie
     We left about 11 am heading into Kitchener stopped by bu Suzie's Natualpath for some meds then a visit with out financial adviser to go over our portfolio. These visits always go well , then following that we head out for a tasty lunch at The Lancaster Smokehouse, for some very good authentic BarBQue. Tasty foods like catfish, brisket,fried green tomatoes,cajun jambalaya, pulled pork, Po'Boys,  all very good.
this the place
     They have lots a craft beers here I enjoyed this one below from Mill St Brewery,This one is an LPA they call Wobbly Wheel. I had to try it just because of the name.
very tasty IPA
      Now what to order??? so many wonderful choices, last time I had the blackened catfish and really enjoyed it.
fried chicken for Suzie, fries, coleslaw,
and fresh baked cornbread
our friend enjoyed a  brisket sandwich and huge onion rings, with coleslaw.
I tried the beef brisket (excellent) fries, smoked chicken wings (not bad)
 red beans and rice, excellent,
and tasty corn bread
     This was all very tasty and very enjoyed a great lunch with definitely some to bring home.
      From here we went to the Bell phone store to check out a new I-phone (my first I-phone yippee!) for me and a great data package with unlimited calling and texting in Canada and the US, no roaming plus 17 GB of data for us to share, Canada and US as well. (we only had 10 GB before and was never enough), much better phones and packages for a very little more per month.
       Now this was taken care of we could now go visit daughter number 2 and her partner AND finally meet our Brand new Granddaughter #3. She was born last fall after we headed south and now we finally got to meet her. What a sweetie! Oh my she is a real doll.
such a happy couple
me and Grandson #1 now 14 years old wow is he growing !
      Could not nail down the other 2 boys to get a picture this time they too busy with friends.
so content just playing quietly here
        That was our busy, productive and fun day finally getting to spend some time with the One daughter the grands and meeting this amazing new smiling granddaughter. The family is growing 8 Grandchildren now !
         The weather appears to be warming up and hopefully the temps will keep climbing. 
         Thank y'all for stopping on by today as we enjoy more of the wonderful lifestyle.

  2. Those roads do not look fun to drive on, not fun at all. I hope it warms up and your snow starts to disappear.
    Your new granddaughter is a happy little one for sure! You don't mention her name though. She is saying "yay, another grandma and grandpa!" :)
    Stay warm guys.

  5. She is a beauty. How fun to be around and watch her play. That food looks AMAZING!!! But it's still not enough to make me weather your spring. I'd sure hate to see your winter!!

    1. Thanks Nancy we agree a real doll. So much fun to watch her learn and play.
      The food was an excellent way to enjoy the weather with a good friend.
      No you don't want to experience our weather and neither do we anymore.
      Many feet of snow in the winter is not fun.

    1. This is a deal that works for us. I Choose the I-phone SE, same size as the i-phone 5 (small) this phone was free with a 2 year contract. The package should work for us perfectly. Yes she is a cutie and was not to sure about me, but then that is not usual, lol..
