It was a perfect day… a flight to Tobermory for a bike ride and a snack, and returning under the stars. Magical.  Thanks Werner, it was fantastic.

Hey … that’s our farm! We can even see our white horses in the fields on the left.

Canada 150 … we didn’t see it until looking at the photos later … good shot Emma!

The Horse Habit … 2nd oldest tack shop in Ontario… worth the drive, keep going past Owen Sound… lol Ellen says people don’t leave without buying – the drive works in her favour! www.horsehabit.ca

Bruce Peninsula… I never realized how desolate it is. No wonder why they are Bears.

DeCew Falls

My son Chris rows for Trent University, the Canadian Championships was held at the PanAm site in St. Catherine’s, Henley Island.

It’s a long drive to cheer like only a mom can … for about 30 seconds.  So a side trip to DeCew Falls between races was in order.  No-one told me how long the hike is, or how muddy and treacherous. When I got to this falls, I might have looked puzzled as it wasn’t what I was expecting. Nope the big falls was even more difficult to get to … I’ll save that one for another day and bring ropes etc.

I took a couple of selfies to celebrate the hike, and returned to cheer on Chris.
