The pack jumped on the staycation craze and decided to spend quality time enjoying the sights, sounds and smells of the surrounding environs instead of driving hours and hours on end on expensive tanks of gas.
First up was St. Jacobs on Saturday, a destination well-known to Ribsy. Mirabel was remarkably well-behaved at the market. Boy and Girl stocked up on fiddleheads, asparagus, apple cider, summer sausage, and homemade pecan pie for a decadent feast that night.

Then they explored a trail along the Grand River, in Cambridge.
Today, they checked out the Aberfoyle Antiques Market, about a half hour drive away. A dog-friendly (pooches are allowed on leash, and are even given a treat when they come in) and sunny and chock-a-block packed atmosphere led to plenty of hours spent perusing the furniture and collectibles, only to come home with a sunburn to show for the efforts.
Here are the kids at the end of their first staycation together.
