I had written in a previous post about the Harley family that would be staying with us for FolkFest when we got back to Canmore.
Kate had not yet met them and we hoped that everyone would get along. It turned out that everyone's expectations around compatibility were greatly exceeded. The Harleys were enamoured with Canmore and were very game to try out our local swimming hole (Quarry Lake), some local hikes and even just hanging out at Adrienne and Ray's place (our house-sitting gig while we were homeless).

Sean knew that Martin liked to ride a mountain bike, so the two of them went off to do some boy-bonding on the Bow Valley trails.

We also had some time around the campfire in Adrienne and Ray's back yard. Music was involved.

Martin was courteous enough to pull out his guitar and enhance the experience for everyone. Whoo hoo!
Meeting them made for a real treat. We love having kiddies in our lives and hope to spend more time with the whole family.
