Oh What A Summer It Was!.....






























Hello everyone....

Geesh...how do I let so much time slip between posts...

Summer is over...and Fall is in full swing here in Southern Ontario...

Temps have cooled considerably...and lots of rain expected over the next few days...

A crazy wild windstorm blew through over the weekend...

Everything has survived...although the Ottawa area was hit with a Tornado, and it is in quite a state...my thoughts go out to anyone there...

My sweet Granddaughters are growing in leaps and bounds...

Miss Nora is already over 9 months old...crawling everywhere!!! 

Miss V is a big girl in Grade 1 now...

Where does the time go????

It seems I used to take a few pics...load them up...do a post...

Now....I have SOOOOO many gorgeous photos...and I am lucky if I post once a month....

I really should remedy that...hahaha!!! How many times have I said that before!!! 

I have a lot of you, over on IG...very faithful followers...and I thank you all for that ...much appreciated...

I hope you are all well...

         See you soon....PROMISE!!!

                  Cheers!   :o)

  3. It was a beautiful Summer, and flew so fast. It seems you only just opened up the cottage after Winter! Beautiful photos, especially the girls, and your flowers are wonderful. My daughter in Ottawa had quite a shock with the tornado, fortunately they escaped a direct hit, but are not so far from Dunrobin where there was a lot of damage. She really did not understand the warnings to prepare, but she will know in future. Fall is coming to you - love those golden leaves.

  5. Summer at the cottage was truly wonderful for you Linda.
    Love all the pictures!
    Miss N and Miss V are as precious as can be!
    First grade, nine months . . . where do the weeks, months, years go.
    My GG Miss O . . . four years old, writing, drawing, recognizing words . . . Oh My . . .
    We had the wind, 50 mph, and limbs, branches, twigs are still being cleaned up.
    Finally, the skeeters have quieted a bit. I just hopped on my bike for a ride through the
    neighborhood and narry a skeeter landed on me!
    Cute, precious Snickers sleeps away most of her days.
    Sad to see the drastic changes . . .
    Happy fall days my friend!

      It is inevitable that Fall has arrived...I think the older we get...the shorter the NICE seasons pass by...
      Have a great week Lynne...

  11. All such wonderful photos Linda . Oh WOW how those two lovely grand girls have grown . We got some wind and rain here but nothing much it always seems to horse shoe around down this part of the lake . I still haven't got into the instagram thing yet guess I better get with the times soon eh?! I cant believe how fast this summer went it was a hot humid dry one that's for sure . I am enjoying the cooler fresh air but not how early the sun sets now . Thanks for sharing , Have a good week !

  12. What a wonderful photographer you are and your granddaughters are so adorable. It is amazing how fast summer went and I was so not ready for it to be over but once the weather turned and it started getting chillier I flipped and I'm now I'm all about Fall.
    How nice to visit your blog.
