After today’s win, the Riders are 7-1, their best start since 1971. Even Sasha’s on the bandwagon, courtesy of an old outfit she inherited from her brother (first of many I’m sure!)
Spending a couple nights camping at beautiful Crooked Lake, one of the few campgrounds I know with lakeside sites. Wish I’d seen this list of camping hacks before we’d arrived!
Spent an enjoyable few days at our family cottage at Katepwa Lake. Here are some photos from the last few days… Paddle boat ride… Getting ready for Sasha’s first boat ride… Boat rides are relaxing Going fast = crazy hair! “I’m the king of the world!” Washing tub bath – a family tradition… Peaceful… Fishing […]
