This is the best time to get that stuff done. We’ve been saving up household items for construction materials, and the fair book was officially released a week or so ago. Now the kids can sit at the table and build for as long as the materials, and their attention spans can hold out. Painting, building, drawing and crafting all manner of imaginative things. Good times. From what I recall the Markham Fair runs at the end of September and the first few days of October. I will need to double check those dates. But usually the weekend before Canadian Thanksgiving is a safe bet for planning your fair visit. Food trucks, agricultural exhibits, midway with rides, beer tent, tutorials, and vendors selling just about everything. Blooming onions, Tiny Tom donuts and cotton candy smells wafting on the fall breeze. Hard to beat, free parking and nightly fireworks.
It’s Wednesday my dudes! You know what that means. Hump day! Half way through the week, and getting ever closer to the weekend. Funny how each individual day can be broken down into having time both standing still, and making mammoth leaps forward in the blink of an eye. The days are long, but the weeks and months fly by somehow.
Also the town programming schedule got released the other day at 6:00pm, so we had to scramble to get the kids into something they would like. I’m still not sold on indoor programs being back full swing. Seems like we should show Covid/Monkey Pox a bit more caution. Did you know that with Mnkypx you need to isolate for 3 to 4 weeks, WEEKS!, Good God man. Fomites, aerosols, contact with sores, exchange of fluids… going to get everywhere in the next six to twelve months. Especially if people treat isolation with as little respect as they do Covid. Yikes. Man I hope this stays out of schools. But we’ve seen what that type of sheltered view about schools can do. That York Region high water mark for Covid related absences was from our kids school. April was a Ghost town. Somewhere over 40% absenteeism due to illness. Top of the charts for us. Not a real solid morale boost.
