May 20, 2015. The day began with a shower. I trudged up the hill to the shower house. Unfortunately, I discovered that the shower operated only with the insertion of a loonie, the Canadian one-dollar coin. It is called a loonie because it has a depiction of a loon on it. I didn't have any loonies. I had toonies - a two-dollar coin - but no loonies. So, I returned to T-Harvey and showered there. The shower is large enough for Annie but not for me. I did manage to turn around in it and get clean. When I exited, I banged my head on the door frame. "Ouch!" said I, or something like that. Next time, I'll make sure I have a loonie and shower in a stall larger than a coffin.
We walked a hiking trail around the campground before lunch. The two-mile walk took over an hour because someone kept stopping to take pictures. I tried to hurry her up, but you know Annie; anything worth doing is worth doing right. We saw all the usual things you see on a trail; water, flora, fauna, flowers, dog crap, signs and wood carvings. Actually, Annie didn't photograph the dog crap because it was dog crap. She photographed it because it was in the shape of a question mark. Always the teacher.
The afternoon was spent reading and napping in the sunshine. The temperature was in the low 70s and it was a beautiful day on the island. I cooked outside tonight. We had pork chops and they were tasty, if I do say so myself. Tomorrow we will do something equally as exciting. G'nite mates.

Who taught you to talk like that? I thought is was plop!
It took over fifty years for Annie to get me to say "crap".
