Our 2015 Visit to our Cottage, with some Surprises
July – September, 2015
Every summer, Heather and I travel 2,500 kilometres by car, from where we live in Winnipeg, in the centre of Canada, to the Province of Québec, where we have a small and primitive shack on a beautiful, but remote, lake in the middle of a forest. Inveterate blogger that I am, I have spun a tale or two about our adventures, and posted them online.
This summer, in addition to the normal activities of cottage life, there were some surprises. This is the summer when I was taken to hospital, and also when Heather and I took a quick trip to California.
This page lists all of this summer’s blog entries, with a brief description of each:
- Ready... Set... Go!!!
A letter to a friend, describing our journey to the cottage, and the work that must be done to open it for the summer. - Disconnect!
Our ability to connect to the Internet from our cabin? Gone. Totally. Possibly for good. - A Universe of Pain
After a day of hard work in the forest, something starts to hurt, and I am rushed off to the hospital. - The Sunken Vessel
After an extremely heavy downpour... - The Surprise Treat
Heather and I take a short trip to California, at the invitation of our daughter. - Family Time!!
Three of our four adult children, with their families, come to stay a while at the lake. - Helping and Fixing
A wondrous elevator rises next door; and I repair a ramp. The 2015 summer at the cottage then comes to peaceful end.
