Summer Shimmer / Watery Wednesday

Late afternoon sun as it shimmers on the bay (Georgian Bay)
Taken late Aug 2008, untouched except for the logo and some cropping.

and I had to offer this photo of the bay today. The first time we can see open water since before Christmas. YAY. The ice is slowly melting!

Me

I have been coming to my cottage every summer since I was born. I think I was conceived here ;) - it's in the water and those cool crisp September nights. This is my piece of heaven, the place my family had spent their summers for 86 years, it's part of me always.

You always want to return to the place that where you were happy and felt safe. I have always wanted to live at the cottage, so 4 years ago I made my final drive north to my cottage. I stayed and I love it. I'm guess I'm a a bit country now. I live on a beach with my kitties, my computer and an R.R. address.

I live in Tiny, Ontario (yup it's my municipality and s a township) in Central Ontario on Georgian Bay.

It's a good thing. ;) Tks MS

My Cottage

I was waiting on the pier for the ferry in Oak Bluff, MA. I LOVE Martha's Vineyard. This photo is several years old, I was younger, thinner :( and it appears much fairer;) Okay - I just happen to like this photo. :)
