The Best Laid Plans… (Part 1)

Judi and I schedule our festival visits a month or two in advance. We try to visit as many Ontario festivals and events as possible! It is sometimes difficult to keep up our schedule. Rain and thunderstorms are the main cause of cancellations. Once we planned to visit the Peterborough and three times we had to cancel. The first due to illness and the other two due to rain and thunderstorms! The first planned visit was successful and we had a great “rockin’” time! Perseverance, as they say, pays off! Then there was our planned visit to Fort Henry. We made arrangements to visit their famous Tattoo performance. In Cobourg, it was the worst storm of the last 10 years. Record amounts of water fell that day. It was hard to justify a 3-hour trip (there and back) when the chances of the event being cancelled were very high, so we cancelled. It took two attempts to finally visit the Fort. On the second attempt the weather was fantastic as was the Sunset Ceremony that we were privileged to enjoy!
