been a while since I posted. We've been quite busy lately - and I've been lazy about posting too. We've been doing a fair bit of running back and forth to Golden Lake area - Rick had a couple of buyers interested in waterfront properties.
We drove up this morning to Golden Lake to take a water sample - nice drive up, but started to rain on the way back. Good thing we got it out of the way this morning, because those cottage roads can be quite muddy now that they are thawing and a day's worth of rain won't make them any better!
In November the municipality up-graded the water lines in the townsite (we're told our montly water bill will be over $100 when all is said and done- nothin's free) anyway, they barely got the job finished before the snow came and now with the snow melted, you can see what a mess they left. Most houses here have a front lawn that is half lawn half mud. We're not so bad as we have a large front lawn and the mess is down near the road. Don't know if the contract to re-do the water lines included the clean -up afterwards. I suppose the rain will even out the rough spots and a couple of bags of grass seed will greatly improve things.
Jamie and Julie came up yesterday afternoon. Jamie put on his summer tires (he stores his off-season tires up here) and we had a very nice visit. They left around 6 p.m. - Jamie says driving at night is starting to bother him, so he is avoiding it if possible. I think they were heading over to Aylmer where Julie's parents have a cottage. They spent quite a bit of time there last year and plan to again this year too.
Today's picture are from Golden Lake - views from the cottage we looked at and a tree recently felled by a beaver.
