Havelock Memories

We really enjoyed our time in Havelock, and it passed by faster than we would have liked. Both John and I commented on how we weren't quite ready to leave. The setting is gorgeous, the home cozy, and the pups a joy.

Happy Trails

More snow fell on the weekend and while I'm ready for spring, the additional four inches of white stuff did cover that layer of ice that's everywhere and has made outings this past week so treacherous. 

When in Rome...

Life's little trials and tribulations continue, and yesterday we put out another fire. Figuratively speaking, of course.

Havelock's Holly & Maya

After leaving North Bay, the past week seemed to be one crisis after another. Our initial plan involved visiting friends in southern Ontario, but the blizzard brought that idea to a screeching halt. Our next course of action was to drive to Peterborough so we'd be close to our next housesitting gig, but that changed as well when we got stranded in Gravenhurst due to the white out conditions and highway closures.

Arrowhead Provincial Park

While we were in North Bay John heard about a skating trail through the bush. He's skated the Rideau Canal and thought this sounded like fun.

Juice Among Friends

Time flies when you're having fun and the past six weeks have flown by for us and Keegan's owners. If they'd had any fears of their little boy ignoring them upon their return, I'm pretty sure they vanished as soon they walked in the door. Keegan literally jumped into Craig's arms, and he gave Deb so many puppy kisses she had to remove her glasses. He stayed close to them all evening, and in my book that's exactly how a reunion should play out!

A Chilly Start to the New Year

Happy 2014! The cold snap that began LAST year (that sounds so much more dramatic than 'a few days ago') continues here in the Great White North.
