SUNDAY, JUNE 16, 2013

Happy Father's Day to the wonderful men in our lives!

Rat Portage weather forecast is overcast and rainy today with a high of 66. No, we haven't moved to a new city, Kenora was originally known as Rat Portage!

Kenora was derived from the first two letters of the three original towns that made up the area. KEewatin, NOrman and RAt Portage. There was much opposition to changing the name of Rat Portage, an Ojibwa name meaning 'portage to the land of the muskrats'. Eventually, Kenora won out in the early 1900's.

Mark made a large batch of vegetable soup but asked Julie 7 times if she'd bake today. Sue thought this hilarious ... diet soup followed by cake!!!

Kurian's are cooking chicken for tonight's dinner to be followed by Julie's banana cake and a round of Cribbage. Meanwhile, Chippy was dining at the jail bird cafe. LOL
