I’ve been looking forward to this Friday 13th since last year.  I usually fly over Port Dover on Friday 13th for the mass biker gathering.  There is only one of them this year, so I was really hopeful the weather would be decent.  As of the day before, it was looking really bad – rain was pretty much guaranteed, which totally sucked for the tens of thousands of bikers and moi!  Fortunately, there was some clear weather in the morning, so I headed to the airport.  In less than 40 minutes, I was over Port Dover.  I don’t think there was quite the turn-out as other years, but it was still a pretty neat sight:

Typical bike parking lot:

Good flight!  The weather totally turned yucky soon after I got home, so I’m glad I made it out when I did.

Once I landed, I headed up to the tower for a visit with the Flight Service Station folks.  Brain was thrilled to see Donkay again and greeted him accordingly:

And then:

I’m pretty sure they were love stabbings!

One of the FSS dudes came in for his shift not long after I arrived.  On his way into work, he had picked some wild asparagus which apparently grows freely throughout Niagara – who knew!

Yum!  (minus the smelly aftermath!)

Another good time during last week was during a Mary K party a friend from work invited me to.  I was able to bring a friend, so I brought bestie Laura with me.  We showed up at the Bed and Breakfast – Lily’s House on the 12 around 6:00pm.  Wow.   All I can say is wow.  This place was gorgeous.  It’s right on 12 Mile Creek  in St. Catharines.  The owner, Lily, has done an amazing job decorating and used her father’s beautiful artwork, such as this:

She even has artists come to her business and provide art classes.  Laura and I both want to sign up for one of these classes soon.  Here’s her schedule: http://bbonthe12.wix.com/bbonthe12#!calendar/mxdeo

Prior to our Mary K session, Lily cooked us a delicious dinner:

Followed by dessert:

What a great evening!

Back home, I took little Peanut out of his cage and let best bud Pinky spend some time with him.  They were both thrilled, as you can see:

Today’s symptoms:  Feeling on and off physically over the last week or so.  Been pretty down and that always has a negative impact on how I feel and my MS symptoms.  Hopefully things turn out and start to pick up!
