Life is Better by the Bay

Our home computer was broken most of the summer.  We recently got a new one; so I can finally post a few photos from the summer.  Although the summer was cooler and rainier than normal, the weekends were pretty nice.  This allowed us to get quite a bit of use out of the new cottage.  We were there most weekends and had a number of visitors, including Mike's parents, my sister, our neighbours, and one of my friends and her daughter. We also did a few  trips - one to Tobermory and Flower Pot Island and one to a treehouse (where we spent the night).  The following are a few photos that show life really is better by the bay......
