Inverhuron, Aug.16-18 2013

We had a sunny, warm week-end and I enjoyed my time in the water. It has been a while since we have had a nice week-end like this.
Friday we had company for the evening. John & Joanne came for a visit and were our first week-end away guest to check out Georgie. They were impressed! We had a good evening sitting by the fire enjoying the wonderful aroma of the pine wood John so kindly delivered to us. If I had known he had brought more I would have kept it all. It is always nice to catch up with family. We hope they are having a great time in Bristol, Tennessee.
Saturday we did a little exploring in Kincardine and spent time walking the beach. It was a beautiful day and we so enjoyed the warmth by the water. We indulged in strawberry shortcake when we returned back to Inverhuron and it tasted sooooo good! There were lots of birds and there young at our campsite so I enjoyed time with them. It was hard to get photo's of some because of all the leaves on the trees but just experiencing this wonder of nature was a pleasure. In the evening we went down to the beach to enjoy the sunset and spent the rest of the night enjoying the warmth and glow of a pinewood campfire.
Sunday we went for a hike and spent time down at the rocky shoreline. We had a late breakfast and enjoyed some lazy time before heading to the beach for the rest of the day. It was great to get in the water and spend time just enjoying the sights and sounds at the beach.
