Summer flows into Fall at the Cottage

Sailing in the fall requires warmer attire.

Sweet Boat had lots of good sailing this summer and fall.

Two days after the tornado hit Goderich we had this sky and another tornado warning.

Goderich will never look the same in our lifetime. Buildings can be rebuilt but the loss of the trees is such a tragedy.

Fall sunsets take on a look of their own.

Huronview has a special harvest dinner in September that we wouldn't miss.

Rob continues work on the cottage with smaller projects. This fall he will be building our kitchen cabinets in the basement of the condo.

The garden on the beach was a success.

Happy Thanksgiving???

My annual bathing suit picture was taken on Thanksgiving weekend this year complete with a turkey accessory?!

This picture shows our bird house where we hope to attract purple martins next spring. The bird house is made of cedar logs and the green steel roof matches the roof on the cottage. It was made by a gentleman in Belgrave whose business is called Extreme Birdhouses.

The weather was amazing and what a treat to be able to get out for a kayak in October. The pictures were taken with my new Fugi camera---dustproof, freezeproof, waterproof and shockproof---just what I need!!?? We are looking forward to getting some good underwater pictures this winter in The Bahamas. If only I had had my camera with me when I had my shark encounters last winter?

The leaves told us it was Thanksgiving but the temperature of mid 20s C/ high 70s F made it feel like summer.

The mum plant looked absolutely beautiful in its autumn radiance.

Mom enjoyed both her visit to the cottage and her dinner.

It was not hard to be thankful for this lovely Thanksgiving with family and friends.
