The next big task is to demolish the thick concrete pier and rebuild it (hopefully as solidly as originally built by the “previous generation talgulised”) over the next month or two so that it is ready for the approaching summer.
Having seen the “talgud” tasks completed for the day, Seedrioru was witness to another wonderful surprise. Late in the afternoon, far off in the clear blue sky appeared a single engine airplane seemingly heading in the direction of Seedrioru. Closer and closer, and lower and lower… the plane seemed to check out the Seedrioru grounds. The plane then banked with a wide turn and returned lower yet, and lo and behold it landed on Seedrioru’s upper field!! Several surprised “talgulised” with beer in hand, went quickly to check out the flying machine and who was the daring pilot. We were happy to see that it was our esto buddy Erik Coverdale as the pilot and he said he was just up for a joy ride from the Guelph airpark. And after a short stay and chit-chat Eric started up the engine and took off cleanly back into the clear blue sky.
With that unique airplane landing event, Seedrioru has once again shown JõeKääru and Kotkajärv that is first and most famous (tongue and cheek) of the 3 Ontario eestlaste retreats.!!
