Westport and beyond

After Art in the Garden, we went towards Westport to toodle along Canoe Lake Road.


This is my favourite shot of the trip! Such a traditional log cabin.


Canoe Lake, as we reach one end of it.


Rocks, suddenly the geology changes. There are rock faces and hills, rather than bog.


Then, another field.


Snug Harbour Resort has a wee river where fishing, it appears, is good.

We turned around to head for Westport. There was no where to eat around here. We pulled over to escort the snake across the road, but someone on his lawn moved it across the highway. Whew!


The rock. I like this rock face.

I like the ramp.


We only have three seasons, bugs, construction, and snow!


This is why eating lunch on the patio is such a joy.

I saw her taking a photo, and I photobombed them! We chatted.

I like Westport! It's the season for going topless...

Lovely view from these homes.


Headed home... lots going on.



Slow down, peeps.


Can you see the headlights through the rear window?! We followed her for quite a time. Somebody had to pass us and several cars.

Bancroft, Highway 28 => Sand Lake Adventure

The ongoing saga of our Toronto/Muskoka trip!
There is a fire ban all across Central and Southern Ontario. We spotted many signs as we traveled. Lots of lovely lakes, hills, and forests. We bought lunch in Bancroft, and took it with us until we found a spot to eat. Miller's Lake, although the signage said Sand Lake Park, is the spot. No chairs, JB ate standing up, I sat on the nice, flat rocks.



This is the famous Swiss Inn. We stopped here once. It's for sale!


The perfect spot for lunch. The signage says Sand Lake, but Google calls it Miller's Lake! Very, very shallow, it was a nice wade on our trip home from Gravenhurst, 283 km, of 340 km to home.
