At the Cottage

We slept with one window open last night and it was a lovely night for it. I've just been opening one window lately at night as the cross breeze might make it too cool and I took the electric blanket off late last week due to the heat wave that was coming and it has been hot in the daytime this week.

Today was another beautiful sunny day but it seems these beautiful sunny days will be coming to an end as rain is expected tonight and again Friday and through the weekend. We're just hoping that it doesn't rain Monday when we move back to the Ottawa area.

This morning we went in to Lindsay to Tech Mobile. This is where we bought our internet satellite over three years ago when it was called 3i Communications. Last year the owner, Armand was in the campground and offered to replace our dish (it still shows 3i Communications) so we went to see if the offer was still good. Unfortunately he wasn't there so we'll have to try again although our time here in Lindsay is drawing short.

On our way back to the RV park we stopped to take some photos of the horses. This horse decided to put on a show for us.


After an early lunch I went into town to get some photos processed and then went out to the cottage to spend the afternoon with Betty as Garth is in Toronto and will be taking off for England for a few days tonight. We sat on the dock and enjoyed the breeze. It was hot in town but beautiful out at the cottage. Here are a couple of photos from my lawn chair.


Just before I left we went for a walk. You're allowed to walk along the front between the water and the cottages. We stopped to talk to one of the ladies who is also into beading and she took us inside to show us what she's done. Now, I'm really depressed! She has made some gorgeous necklaces, bracelets and earrings. It makes my piddly little necklaces and bracelets look so amateurish! Maybe some day!

While there I took this photo of the neighbour's cat, Tiger. Gordon had taken a photo of it last year. Hard to believe it's the same cat.


This is the swamp on the other side of the road to the cottage.

This is the front of the other cottage that Garth owns. The two cottages are side by side. It looks so pretty from the front.


When I got home, Gordon went back into town to see if Armand was there as he wasn't able to get him on the phone. No luck!
