Annual Cottage Visit

Summer is whizzing right by! A few weeks ago we made our annual visit to Daughter L's in-laws' cottage up in Muskoka. We took a boat ride to Gravenhurst and had lunch at the Muskoka Brewery.  The main road to Gravenhurst is closed for 2 years for renovations!  I hope these businesses can survive with just maybe boat traffic.

Linking to Gillena's Sunday Smiles.

White Wine Sangria

Fish Tacos

Fish and Chips

 We always try to stop by to see good friends on the way home, this visit was no exception.  Our hostess showed me these new perennial flowers she had acquired.  I forgot the names but how pretty are they.

Dear Christine, I've never heard of a white wine sangria before, but I imagine it to be delicious and more refreshing than red wine sangria. The food looks great too. It's great that you had such lovely days!
The plants you show are called:
Indian nettle 'Cambridge Scarlet' (botanical name: Monarda fistulosa 'Cambridge Scarlet')
Montbretia 'Lucifer' (Crocosmia x crocosmiiflora 'Lucifer' )
All the best and a wonderful August, Traude

That's a long time for the road to be totally closed. What do they do in the winter? Your lunch looks delicious.

I also hope those businesses survive. I'm sure some may not have survived the COVID time, Loved the fish tacos and the gorgeous flowers. What a lovely day you must have had!

Sounds like a very enjoyable visit all around. Sad that road work takes so long these days.
