once in awhile I turn a blind eye to all the work I have to do and pack the family in the car and head to the cottage for some much needed rest. even though it was a bit chilly - the sun was out and we all had such a wonderful time - and only at the cottage do you find vending machines that sell live bait - during our trip there were a few highlights - one was seeing a turtle about to cross the road - we pulled over and I was about to take his photo, but he made a mad dash into the marsh - I thought turtles were slow - not this one - he was a foot wide and double in length (the dark shape in the photo above is the turtle) - the other highlight was this wonderful sand dune near sauble beach - the picture looks deceiving - it was quite a climb - this photo was taken right after john and the kids ran down. we got back late last night and the house is a mess - so lots to do today before I can begin my work. we will have to take a mini getaway again.....really soon. I hope your weekend was fun like ours.
I agree, totally agree, you, we all need to get away from everything from time to time, it's really vital.
