Fun In...
Canada
Curtiss's Grandma and Grandpa (the ones who own the cabin)
bought us tickets for the Island Queen Cruise as a wedding present.

It was so beautiful with the water and leaves turning on all the islands.
On our way back to the dock we had to go by the turning bridge.It actually swings from the middle to let boats go by. The boat let out a long whistle to let them know we were coming and
sideways goes the bridge :)
While we were on the island Curtiss and I went on a canoe ride around
Grave island (the one we were staying on) and
Goat Island (the island right next to us)
The morning we went it was perfect, the water was like glass and we had a lot of fun.

We went for a hike the one day and explored.
Here is a picture of us on the highest point of the island.

Out for pizza.
Yes, we actually did order three pizzas.
It was just about as much to order three medium pizzas as it was to get one large,
so we had a really good breakfast the next day :)
Hooray for Pizza Hut deals

While Curtiss and I were on our way to the cabin we noticed these piles of rocks all over the place, naturally we became curious but didn't have any idea what they were for.
Well, the one day that we went souvenir shopping and we found some little ones for sale with info cards tied to them.
They are Inuksuks and they were a sign of welcome and safety back in the days of the pioneers.
Fun huh?
so we had to build one of course :)
Next time we leave Parry Sound and head to Sudbury Canada

That picture of the canoe is absolutely beautiful!
I thought maybe the rocks were markers for how many people died during the flu or something. But that is kind of a morbid thought isn't it. I think I like Welcoming signs better! :)
these are all such nice pictures!!! hooray for blogs and keeping in touch despite miles between us. I like the rocks idea a lot. maybe you should make a pile in your yard as a memory. :)
Claire asked me today just how many aunties does she have and has she met them all yet?? I told her about you and she is anxious to be cuddled by you! Can't wait to see you sometime...
