Watching the skies

The skies are so lovely. We expect rain on the weekend, but our lakes are low. The skies reflect the slushy ice on the lakes.



On a wonderful drive into town, we took a scenic detour. It is hard watching the skies, when the lakes are so interesting, however. I love this building near Bent River, with its bright red roof.

Then there are the rock outcroppings.




Just in case you think we are primarily tourism: lakes and cottage country...farmland. See the farm, below!
Home to a lovely sunset.

Such wonderful pictures. I love the picture of the sunset. The landscapes are so diverse in Muskoka and it makes it truly beautiful. I think Huntsville is my favourite part of Muskoka. I like the big hills and beautiful Lake of Bays.

Jenn: That is a great sky, may you have some great warm days and the lake come back to life.
Our lakes are thawed and our snow is gone.
