My entertainment for the night in Kitchener was watching my wife hold the fence from blowing over while I cut some wood and got my drill and screws. She got upset at me when I wanted to stop and take a picture, she didn’t think that was very funny. :smt018 :smt075 :smt102

Also, we found a neighbours steel gazebo in a tree down the street 15’ off the ground

Watched a metro fly overhead landing in YKF around that time the last special came out. Looked like it was damn near hovering on approach :shock:
