Sunday in Deep River was beautiful. Being Sunday, we went to the local church, Our Lady of Good Counsel. Jake was happy that the service was short :-) We've found that the people here are very friendly and always willing to strike up a conversation. We were invited for cookies and coffee, but we had our sights set on other things - visiting the local "chip truck". Not being from these parts, we needed to be explained what a chip truck was - basically a truck stationed in one location that serves french fries. We were not disappointed! The chips were delicious and we brought a huge box back for Biker, Wynn, and Carrie.
Since the weather had improved, we decided to take the canoe out and take the boys' skim boards. A short row from the house is Pine Point Beach. Jake and Sam enjoyed trying out their skim boards, and Kate enjoyed playing in the water. If you didn't know any better, you'd thing the Ottawa River was actually a lake! As you peer off across the Ottawa River, you can see Quebec. Perhaps we shall try to canoe across tomorrow???
