Dog Days of Summer



July has been a very busy month at "The Kaasa Inn". Mark's Mom, Rosemary (aka Grandma K), came for a week and helped us chase Henry around. We finally got to show her around Toronto without snow! Henry took her for walks around the neighbourhood, picnics at the lake and strolled up and down Queen Street. Rosemary's long time friend, Patty, also came for a few days to join the fun. Next we had a visit from Aimee and Jeff, who drove all the way from Southwest Michigan to see Henry and discover Toronto. We went up the CN Tower, strolled around the beach, shopped in Yorkville and celebrated Aim's birthday!




Henry and Grandma K at the splash pad...getting soaked by the sprayers. Grandma was a trooper getting right in the middle of the jets.













From the CN Tower you can see all of downtown (a mere 351 metres or 1,151 ft below) and on a very clear day straight across Lake Ontario.
















Tippy toed to see all of the passers by making their way down our street to the beach.


























Henry and Jake have forged a true friendship. Jake doesn't seem to care that Henry uses him as a jungle gym, walker and form of entertainment. Henry returns the favour by sharing scraps from each meal, giving Jake extra dog food in between meals and making sure that we go to the park twice a day.
