What I've Been Up To Lately...well...Last Weekend, Anyway!!





When we pulled in the driveway at the cottage...were we surprised to see this!!

We had seen snow along the drive, but didn't think there would be any here!!

This was last Saturday....

It was very breezy and quite chilly that day...so I decided it would be a great time for me to get the bathroom...kitchen...and main living area cleaned!! I had already done upstairs, the week before ...but the main floor needed a good going over...So....I rolled up my sleeves and got to work!

My boyfriend busied himself outside...and we were both happy!!

When I was finished...I bundled up...grabbed my camera, and headed out for a stroll.

 








We tried to find a warm spot to sit and enjoy the sunset....

But....

It was too darn cold!! 

Inside to watch some golf on tv...The Masters was going on...

When we sat down to eat dinner...we spied this HUGE ship way out on the Lake...

I zoomed in, and got a great shot!! This was bigger than we had ever seen...

The sun was hitting the waves...and the sky was turning a beautiful rosy colour...
 



This was dinner...skinless cajun chicken thighs....
Crispy wee roasted potatoes and Greek Salad...It sure was yummy!!
And the view was fantastic too!!
 

I braved the cold night air to get this shot of the Moon...

Can't wait for a full Moon in the summer...sit on the deck...have a fire!!
 
 Sunday was a much friendlier day...warmer...but still breezy...

We got all the lake side beds raked...and my boyfriend got the last of the Miscanthus cut down...

After showering...we sat in the sun for a while...I grabbed some crochet...

Listening to the birds and the waves....GLORIOUS!!

We went out to the local restaurant for dinner....fish and shrimp...

And watched the end of the Masters when we returned!!



Monday morning was back to the grey skies and chill in the air...

We had planned to come home anyway, as I am having the kids for dinner on Good Friday...and I need to get myself organized!!
 



Another great few days at the cottage...

But...I wish Mother Nature would make up her mind what Season it is!!

When we got home, it was warm and sunny...so we tackled a second rake of the gardens here at home...

Hope you are all well...and enjoying this off again/on again weather!!

We reached 22*c here on Tuesday...crazy!!

Have you all got big plans for the long weekend????

Do tell...I am all ears....Bunny ears that is! hahaha!!

Very excited to be seeing Miss V on Friday...it has been a few weeks!!!!

      Enjoy the rest of your week...and...If I don't get back here again...

             Have a wonderful Easter weekend....

                 Enjoy good food...good friends...and of course...

                                  💙💙   FAMILY   💚💚

                          Cheers!  :o)
