Sometime on the weekend we'll perhaps go over and visit my son and his family, visit with our three month old grand-daughter.
I can also supervise the construction of his new deck.
Cheers

This weekend I'll mostly be practising driving my new car, in anticipation of my driving test in a couple of weeks time. No worries about the gas prices this week, as the dealership gave me a full tank of gas!

Re: What are your plans for the long weekend??
Well, sitting here on a rainy saturday, contemplating the improving forecast I think we are going to go sailing for the weekend with Mrs AX's father. Given that its the last long weekend of the year and the forecast is for +22C and sunny it seems like the only right and proper thing to do!
(Oh yes and it doesnt cost anything in gas!)
Whatever you are doing. Have a good one.

- go to Niagara, import partner legally
- put up fence down side of backyard so dog can go out unattended.
- write hate letter to neighbour who took old fence away
- fix raccoon damage to house roof, shoot some more raccoons
- chainsaw fallen tree into managable chunks, haul chunks to exe's house for firewood
- catch part of the last weekend of the Ex. It's tacky but who can resist butter carving ?
