Thanksgiving





Fall in Muskoka and the leaves are pretty well done. A little rain and wind will knock the last of them to the ground. It has been a beautiful fall for sure.
We now head into the grey season. Little colour, damp and dark...waiting patiently for the snow but that is still a couple of months away.


Had a little pre-Thanksgiving trip to the Naiscout. Thank goodness Carol and Steve put a woodstove in the cabin....we sure needed it.

Had the whole family home for Thanksgiving. Fourteen for dinner...lots of fun.


Thanksgiving wouldn't be complete without the "turkey trot" to Hogarths cabin for Sunday turkey sandwiches on Don's scones.
















The final event on our busy fall is the annual Boy's golf weekend at Dave Harris's cottage at Southamptom. I am not much of a golfer but managed to beat Dave in the spring and the fall. It is a father/son thing but I have yet to manage to bring my boys along...maybe in the spring.Always the planner... looking at a few winter events. Of course, got to hand out the Raithby award at the Royal Winter Fair. Skiing at Blue and yurt camping at Silent Lake are already on the calendar. More weekends to fill up.
