This has been quite the winter here in West Guilford. It seems we just keep getting more and more snow. We weren’t hit too hard for the ice storm – just enough to make the trees look pretty, but we certainly have lots of snow. Since the snow has come so much heavier this year, […]
Right now our landscape looks a bit barren, so I thought I would put up some more pictures from the fall. When we were at Canisbay in Algonquin Park, we enjoyed being immersed in the colours. I am just getting to look at some of those pictures now.In the morning, the mist was rising above […]
When we drove into Canisbay Provincial Park in Algonquin, I felt like we were being immersed in a sea of colour. We had camped there in August with our family, and it was beautiful, but going in October meant that we were seeing it at its peak. The colours (yellows, oranges, and some reds) were […]
At this time of year, we get to enjoy fog on the lake in the mornings. It provides some interesting scenery, and everything seems so much quieter around the lake. Even the duck is usually quiet at this time … until it notices us, and decides it would like some food. Then it squawks for […]
We recently purchased a couple of kayaks, and are learning how to use them. It is beautiful out on the water, especially when the water is calm and fog is lifting in the morning. It really gives you a chance to enjoy God’s handiwork. We’ve found that we can get much closer to loons, and […]
We were on a camping trip in Algonquin Park, and went on a hike around Peck Lake. Peck Lake is small, and you are able to walk all around it. This is an excellent hike if you have young children. When you are on a hike like this, you can take landscape photos, but it […]
We really enjoyed the scenery while we were down at Point Pelee and I thought I’d share some of the spots with you. We camped at Sturgeon Woods Campground near Leamington, which is where the first picture was taken. We were able to watch the fish jumping as the sun was going down. Beautiful time […]
I was going to post some scenery pictures from Point Pelee this week, but as I was going through my pictures, I saw some that I had taken of some birders and thought that I would put them up this week, and the scenery next week.Sometimes it got a bit crowded when we were going […]
About a week ago, we had the opportunity to go to Point Pelee, Ontario, to see some of the bird migration. We had never been there before, and enjoyed the trip to the Leamington area. The weather was great when we were there, and we weren’t bothered by bugs. The birding festival was on and there […]
Last week we went to Minden, Ontario to look at the flooding there. While we were in the area, we went to the Gull River where the rapids are. The water was quite high as you can see in the two pictures below. You can usually walk beside the river and sit on the bench. […]
