Our stop at Presque Isle State Park was fun! I had never been to Lake Erie (or generally that side of the state!), so I was impressed with the area in general. I’m beginning to understand why these lakes are called the Great Lakes!
And here are a bunch of confused seagulls…..

Georgian Bay
Georgian Bay was amazing. While I know we only touched a small portion of the bay, I do believe that the area we were in was indicative of the Bay as a whole. We drove two hours north of Toronto, parked the car and then took a ½ hour boat ride out to Bill and Susan’s island cottage. Here is just a sampling of the shots I took. The days were bright and sunny, but even in the early morning mist the beauty of the islands shone through.
The view from the porch……
From the other side of their island – looking more into the Bay
Another cottage we visited, tucked in the rocks on the left.
“Just” some other incredible views….
Crossing to Canada –
We crossed into Canada over the Thousand Island Bridge. The views going over that (very) high bridge are impressive – even on a gray day.
Here it is looking out of my window –
And here it is looking out of Gary’s – mind you, he’s keeping his eyes on the road!
Canadian Family
I have been terribly remiss in taking pictures of family and friends as we have proceeded on our adventure. How I wish I had taken some shots of my Canadian family – my Dad’s widow, Jo Dwinell and her three children. While we were in Canada they included us in an engagement party and opened their Georgian Bay cottage (see my travel pictures for photos of that area).
I got a shot of Jo, Gary and I, but other than that the best I had in my stash of photos was a group of heads swimming in Georgian Bay. So….
Here are the three of us sitting in Lizzie…
And here are those heads…..
So far behind…..
Hello, dear friends!
So sorry there has been such a delay in posting – we really haven’t fallen off the face of the earth. I just posted about four entries – but I’m still behind on getting the pictures up-loaded and organized. Not to mention telling you all about the great time we had with Toby & Tammy & Ellie last weekend.
Right now it’s 11:30PM on Tuesday, and we’re sitting the parking lot of the Monaco Service Center in Elkhart, Indiana. We have a 6AM appointment tomorrow to have some work done on Lizzie. If I can get real power to this computer, and maybe a wireless connection that won’t eat up all of my minutes – I’ll try to continue to get these pages up to date.
We are well – still friends, and having an amazing time!
