My Birthday Trip- Day 2

 We had planned to go to Dynamic Earth but found out that A) They didn't open until 7pm and 2) they were having a special event called Pumpkin Inferno and the crowds were horrendous so I passed on it.

We spent the day at Science North. Let me tell you, if you have children and you get a chance to go to Sudbury you have to take them there. They have so many interactive stations they would be busy for hours and learning at the same time without realizing it.

We met these 3 cuties right after we entered

There were so many things to see and experience it's hard to decide what was the most interesting part. Natural Science interests me and watching the evolution of the animals from simple arthropods to complex animals.

This is called the Creighton Fault line

It runs underneath Science North, they deliberately built on top of it. Hopefully they don't have an earthquake any time soon.

This indicates where a meteor hit

And it is in Science North as well. As you can see rocks and things interest me more than the animals but I do have one more pic to share from within the Museum. E this is for you.

Giant Spider

There were others but this is the only one I was able to get a picture of.

For Dinner we ate out at the restaurant that is attached to the hotel (sukhdev restaurant). Very nice Indian food.

Butter Chicken and Curry

Tastiest butter chicken I've had in awhile! After dinner we did our usual wind-down because we knew the next few days were going to be computer free. Tomorrow was my birthday and I was going to spend it in a place without any white light allowed.

My Birthday Trip- Day 4

Today is Ferry Day! I am not talking a ferry like the one in Toronto, this ship was huge! I guess it would have to be to hold 18 wheeler's plus dozens of other cars. The Chi-Cheemaun runs between South Baymouth on Manitoulin Island and Tobermory on Bruce Peninsula. It moves passengers and their vehicles between the above two points a few times a day.    E got a business call when we were leaving the Ferry and he got pissy cause he's on vacation and still they called him. Anyway that meant that he left the ferry and the Port too quickly for me to speak about what we were supposed to do next or rather what I wanted to do first. After he calmed down a bit I asked him if we could go back and get tickets to take a ride on a glass bottom boat. We turned back and found the Blue Heron company that did the tours. We booked a tour instead of the explorer tour but that was because I was in pain after a fall during the morning. While we were waiting for the ferry we went for a walk to see...

My Birthday Trip- Day 3

 We started early because we needed to get to the Preserve before dark as absolutely no white light is allowed and that includes car lights. We stopped at the Anishnabe Trading Store, where I met this fellow. From the outside it didn't look that big but inside it was huge.  As you can see behind him there is a lot of stuff. We also stopped at the Iroquois Cultural Centre. Being in there was deeply moving like being in a holy place. I didn't get any pictures because it felt wrong to do so. We stopped at Bridal Veil Falls. The climb down wasn't too bad but the walk back up was murder on my lungs. This was taken about half-way down I think. I had planned to sleep in one of these but I'm glad we changed our mind, the teepee doesn't have a floor. Instead we stayed in a bunkie.  Two rooms and no heat, also no running water or indoor toilet so we had to use a outhouse. That wouldn't have been so bad but the outhouses were set 25 yards or so from the bunkie. Not fun wh...

I am lost

 I am so lost right now. I do not even know what I want from them. Maybe to take some of the responsibility from me. But no one can do that. They are right I need to talk to him. to find out where he is with the disability and the child tax credit and everything else. I don't know what he has done or not done, I do not even know why I am leaning on Nessa to help him out when I don't even know what  kind of help he needs. I do not know what is going on in my head. I do not understand anything I've said or why it makes me cry. I keep looking for the beginning of the conversation. I don't know how to copy it all down so I can figure out what went wrong. "Don't forget I've food at my house. You're welcome to it." " True, I just hate waiting I don't have patience and I can't do a big grocery shopping until it comes. I think I may wait until you're home I don't know if I want to go there. Like I said  I don't want anything to do ...
