May 14-20 (Peel)

May 13, 2026

Good morning Peel 👋 Mid-May check-in — how are we all doing? Ready for a long weekend? Heck yes.

Our family is stacked with May birthdays, so this weekend is a celebratory one for us. We head up north, get eaten by black flies, and kick off the unofficial start of summer. A few brave souls even go swimming.

However you're spending the long weekend, cheers. I hope it's full of good food, good people, and at least one moment where you forget what day it is.

Happy Victoria Day 🇨🇦
