Christie Lake, Brooke, and the Tay River

We left Fieldwork, and drove through Brooke. A true Sunday afternoon drive (Sept.  23)! Normally we avoid the roads during cottage season, but things are quieting down.

Former train tracks, now a trail: snowmachines and ATVs.


This is hubby's type of fence!


This is a pretty good drive-by shooting! Cottage signage varies in the area. This one is amazing!



Even though we cannot sit by a lake, driving around them is lovely.



In the light of flooding, characteristic of the Anthropocene era, this bunkie looks a bit close to the water and a high flood area.

A victim of the winds...


I love this home. The well is amazing. We'll have to go back and I'll get a proper photo!


The river looked inviting. The weeds have turned a beautiful colour.

    The little house, could that be on wheels, and towed away home sometime? Lovely larger home, with the stone well, a real beauty.You too have fall colours, they are further south as well.

    As sad as I am about the loss of the railway, it's very exciting to see the rail beds in use. They have been doing a lot of work on the beds near my house. We can now ride right into the heart of Algonquin Park on a wonderful trail.

    The river shots with reflections are really pretty.
