We had a wonderful time celebrating the Labour Day Weekend with relatives in Alberta. UFC242 was a great prelude to the excitement of watching Bianca Andreescu become the first Canadian to win a Grand Slam singles title, and the first teenager to win a major in thirteen years. The NFL kicked off its 100th season. Though neither of my fantasy teams won their opening match, I thoroughly enjoyed Monday Night Football. We were pleased that Joan was able to come for a visit as it was wonderful to see her again. We visited the Kinsol Trestle and walked a portion of "The Great Trail". By mid-month we were certainly experiencing the transition to autumn, as the weather began to change. On two consecutive days, there were moments when our back deck was basked in warm sunshine, while rain poured down on our front lawn. Happily, summer went out with a flourish, and we enjoyed more time in the sunshine. We made yet another trip up Cobble Hill. After returning from our hike, the blue skies clouded over and thunder began. Next was a couple of minutes of huge hail stones violently pelting down. This quickly changed to smaller hail mixed with rain, which eventually became wind and rain. Shortly thereafter, the sun returned! Prior to month end, we were fortunate to have dinner at Shaun and Debbie's place and then to go out for lunch with Auntie Janet and June. We watched several more movies. We spent more time than usual on television series, enjoying all episodes of "Ozark", "Jack Ryan", and the 4-part mini-series, "Collateral". We also got caught up on "Shameless", watched the final episodes of "Suits", and the new ones of "This Is Us" and "Modern Family". We began "Counterpart" and "Love", but only lasted a single episode of "Godless". We continue to read novels as well.
