“When you rise in the morning, give thanks for the light, for your life, for your strength. Give thanks for your food and for the joy of living. If you see no reason to give thanks, the fault lies in yourself.” Tecumseh
This morning I woke up in the little cabin . . . no bathroom facilities. I looked in the mirror and decided this would make a great 365 photo. Bed Head to the n’th degree! A small price to pay for waking up in Paradise . . .

“Canada is a good country to be from. It has a gentler slower pace – it lends perspective.” Paul Anka
Happy Canada Day! We don’t really do fireworks here like the American’s do on the 4th of July. It was quite different for my Grandson – his first Canada Day and his first time being away from his parents over 4th of July. Luckily, weather co-operated. It’s been raining off and on for days, but it cleared this evening. We built a nice campfire by the side of the lake and spent the evening telling stories and roasting marshmallow’s for S’mores. I couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate . . .

“Health food may be good for the conscience but Oreos taste a hell of a lot better.” Robert Redford, “The Junk Food Companion: The Complete Guide to Eating Badly” by Eric Spitznagel (1999)
We’re at the Lake for a week or so. The property has the main house, and a smaller one bedroom cabin with no bathroom. This is where the kids love to hang out and be kids, play cards, sleep . . . oh and suck up all the Coke they can and cram down as many Oreo cookies as possible! I guess you’re only a kid once eh?? And yeah – once it was all gone, there was no more to replace what only took an afternoon to disappear! It was intended to last the entire trip . . . oh well! Good thing I brought lots of water and fruit . . .
