First of all...
I have been up with Miss V since 5:45am...
She has just gone down for her morning nap...
I'm pooped! haha!
Secondly....
I answered all the comments on Fridays post...
Said that we were home...
Didn't stay over...
Perhaps there is still hope!
Anyway.......On with the tour!
When the sun was out...
It wasn't that bad...
Considering the temp was 14*c...
Pretty warm for this time of year...
But the wind...
Was...
CRAZY!!!
You can see the cloud starting to build up....
By 2:30...
It was total cloud...
And...
Started getting chillier....
We knew then...
It would be...
WAAAAAAAYYY..
Too cold...
To...
Sleepover...:o(
I had brought a few things to cook for dinner...
But...
They stayed in the cooler....and I cooked it......at home!
 |
| This was seconds before the wave got me....soaked socks, shoes and pants! |
Here we are sitting on the bench...
Just enjoying listening to the waves...
And...then...it was time to go...
We left around 3pm...
As it really cooled out then!
Stopped at a thrift shop...
Got a few things....
Took this shot from inside.....the clouds are really think now...
Doesn't she look beautiful...
With her winter shutters up..♥
There used to be a shutter for the big living room window...
THe first year we had the cottage, we installed it...and regretted it!
The inside was as dark as anything...so...we never put it up again!
And...we ended up putting in the 2 side windows...
To let in way more light...and air circulation...
***********
Hope you are all having a great weekend...
Will shower now....while Miss V is sleeping...♥
Not sure about dinner yet....still kinda sleepy!
Cheers! :o)

Sorry you didn't get a sleepover, it looks as though it was beautiful earlier in the day, even though it was cold. It is amazing how the sky can be so blue, but it is freezing cold. Lovely photo of you and your boyfriend! xx
ReplyDeleteYes...perhaps at a later date...
DeleteBeautiful photos, Linda. It must be wonderful to have a cottage with that view. I like the photo of you and your boyfriend. It's a keeper. Deb
ReplyDeleteOh it is, Deb....we love it!
DeleteThanks about the photo.....
Brrr! It does look cold. Never cease to be amazed by the scale of Canada. Like a lake you can't see the other side of... There's no room for even one of those over here!
ReplyDeleteThanks Jessica....Our lake...Lake Erie... is one of the smallest of the 5 Great Lakes....
DeleteThey border Canada and the United States...the other side of Lake Erie is New York State....and towards the S/W is Pennsylvania...
On a clear day....you can see the other side!
Thanks for visiting!
It does look cold there especially the lake. Sorry you got your tootsies wet. That must have been bone chilling. Very nice personal photo and one of the two of you.
ReplyDeleteYes....they were freezing!! Put the heat on full blast in the car!!
DeleteI like taking photos in the shed mirrors....I know...kinda crazy! ha!
Look at you two lovebirds! Aww, such a nice couple. I'm sorry you didn't get to stay up there but it's probably for the best, the weather sounds very rough. I remember that kind of weather when we lived on the other shore of Lake Ontario, it could be so brutal in a storm.
ReplyDeleteGee thanks Jennifer♥
DeleteWhich side of Lake Ontario did you live on? The New York side?
Aw...love the pictures of you and your BF. :) We have rain and WIND! Good grief...tornadoes to come tonight! The gloominess makes us all sleepy! Your little cottage looks ready for winter!
ReplyDeleteYup....me and my boyfriend! hahaha!
DeleteYour weather looks really lousy....stay safe!
i'm with betsy. love the picture of you and your boyfriend! very stylish lake dwellers.
ReplyDeleteand that lake water . . . looks more like the cold winter SEA to me !!!
i even forget it's a huge lake.
actually there are seas around the world called seas not even as big as your lake. so silly.
so i think we should call her your cottage by the sea.
has a nice sound. don't you think?
the pictures make me want to get a warm coat and hot chocolate! beautiful! xoxo
I am going to make a book of all of your comments!
DeleteI'll be rich! haha!♥
For you, Tammy...it will be "Cottage by the sea"!
Next year I should like to visit you at the cottage. I did not make it to Canada at all this summer. (I was there in January, well, Fort Erie, if that counts.) I though certain we would decide to make an escape one day and at least find ourselves north of Buffalo.
ReplyDeleteLove your photos.
I'll be there....Fort Erie is not far from the cottage...
DeleteTalk to me next Summer♥
I will. And maybe I'll even get that pie I promised to one of our Toronto cousins too.
DeleteThat's lake Erie for you very choppy but beautiful ! It has been wonderfully warm temps but tonight the winds kicked up and it poured . The weather channel was issuing a warning for sever storms and high winds ! We got the rains and high winds they blew through here soo fast dies down and now it is picking up again ! Wonderful photos . Thanks for sharing . Have a good evening !
ReplyDeleteSnowing here tonight...light and fluffy!
Delete5:45! Yikes! Now I know why women go through menopause. I never want to go through that again.
ReplyDeleteYou need a big pair of rubber boots for the beach.
Yes...Ido!
