Thankfully, Dorothy's cold was a little better today, so we went shopping for awhile at the Cataraqui Towne Centre (the mall across the street from where our motel used to be) (pronounced Cat-er-ock-way).
In the evening, we were invited to visit another residence in "The Pond". Mary & Henry have interesting backgrounds. Mary showed us the remnant of her doll collection.

Henry has an Atmos clock, an invention which is the closest yet achieved
to a perpetual motion device. |
He also has an interesting painting of Burnt Island Lake, coincidentally near Huntsville where we were on Monday.

a principal in the 1837 Rebellion in Upper Canada |
Later in the evening, Carylanne and Brayden, came over and we watched the Christmas movie, "Blizzard". It was a fun conclusion to an interesting day.
