Off for a drive! Part 2

We went for a drive last week. Here is Part 1.

 These cottages are on a peninsula. 





This is a really interresting cottage.





We saw Mallards, geese, crows, and heron, but I have to rely on archival photos!






Shallow lakes attracts the birds.

Joe likes the tree canopy.

Forest, trees, wetland

 The Aspen Grove, pretty much pruned by Barry Beaver and the July 1st windstorm!



With enough windfall, I can see across the wetland.

He is making progress on the oak tree...






Barry's new lodge, covered in mud for insulation:


This morning it is -2℃ and there is frost. Winter, bring it on...

Off for a drive! Part 1

 Joe came home from doing groceries on Thursday, Oct. 15th,  and suggested we go for an Autumn drive. It could be the last of the colours. We were headed to the Old Kingston Road. You know the type, formerly an ambling path through a forest to get from Kingston to Perth. 

It was a wonderful drive, escaping the news, just having a quiet time on back roads.



Cottage country prices are shocking...



















Stay tuned for part 2!
