Beautiful spring day, with sunshine and a high of about 25C (77F).
And, Monday was the Victoria Day federal holiday here in Canada, so we were hoping it wasn't too busy up there, but it was fine. Not really that many cars around since maple syrup season is over, but the place is open year round.
Wheelers Pancake House.
Beautiful spring day.
View of the bird feeder from our table.
Oops. Missed the focus on the pancake shot!
Lots of maple products for sale.
But, it's way overpriced. For example, we buy a 1 liter container of pure maple Canadian maple syrup at Walmart for $13.99 CAD. Here, they wanted $23.99.
Ridiculous.
But, if they can find buyers at that price, then all the power to them. As P.T. Barnum said, there's a sucker born every minute.
We dropped him off at the retirement home and we headed back to his house where we were meeting with Ruth's brother and nephew. Our son Alex was also coming by for dinner, along with son in law Justin with the grandkids.
We always enjoy the beautiful view from Ruth's father's house.
A rare photo of me with our son Alex!
And, one with Mom too!
Grandaughter Sadie with the tulips.
"No grandpa, they're roses. Because roses are red".
Ruth's nephew Matthew, with her brother Colin.
Good thing they get along!
So, another day accomplishing what we came here for.
Today, we're going to tidy up the house this morning, then head over to my Mom's to do some errands for her. then, back to Lindsey's this evening, and flying back to Saskatoon tomorrow!

Glad you were able to get the family visits done before heading to the Yukon. Cannot wait to hear about this next adventure!
