There is definite truth in the phrase “when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade”.  We went camping for Canada Day and the weather was miserable.  It misted off and on for two days and we did not see the sun once.  We made the best of it though.  We had campfires, roasted marshmallows, took the kids to the park and the beach and visited with friends and made lots of new ones.  We also seen the best fireworks display I have ever seen.  It lasted 45 minutes and was absolutely amazing.  Of course, when it came time to leave the sun decided to make an appearance.  Isn’t that always the way?
