Hello from Stony Plain, Alberta! Yes, we are back on the prairies. I'm surprised by how HOT it is here in late August. But, you know what they say, "It's a dry heat." 😂
|
Aldon's sister is getting married on the Labour Day weekend and we are really looking forward to celebrating their union and our re-union with friends and family.
|
We also started the month with a Jones family gathering, with surprise visits from extended family from afar. There have been a few family BBQs, and my mom was recently able to fly out to BC to connect with her family as well. After two summers of staying home and keeping to ourselves, it's such a gift to be able to travel and spend time with loved ones this year.

Can't get enough of this backyard view...

We had two gigs with Two +1 this month: August 13th at the incredible outdoor stage just down the street from our building in Pugwash. We had gorgeous weather and a lot of fun.
|
And then the folks at the A&E Centre in the Amherst Mall had us out again the following weekend. Nothing else booked yet, but after our vacation, I'm sure we'll get right back to it, learning some new songs and having fun playing together.

And Aldon got to jam a bit with Garrett Mason, a fabulous blues guitarist (son of Dutch Mason) invited up to play a private gathering at The Tides (our building).
|
The hope was to have him play outside in the horseshoe (the backyard amphitheatre), but the weather didn't cooperate so it had to be moved inside. Still so much fun!

Well, that's it from me this month. I hope you've squeezed so much joy out of August this year. Keep in touch!
|
September is my favourite month and I'm looking forward to some autumn weather ahead.
