A Week in the Life, Day Three- pics! :D

It turns out that I did pack my camera cable, but instead of putting with my other cables in my bag, I put it in the front of my backpack. Didn't think to look there! So here's Friday's pictures from our 6 hour drive to a place outside of Greenville, PA, staying with a longtime family friend and her husband on a lake. Now I'm safely in Arkell, near Guelph, Ontario, and have fallen in love with this sprawling house and grounds and barn and 'bunkhouse' where I'll be sleeping. It's delightfully isolated and some of my sister-in-law's family is here, more coming. It will be a combination of lots of socializing with me getting to go off and write if I wish, and there are loads of places for me to do that. :happy sigh: Oh, and when we stopped for some lunch at Tim Horton's (a Canadian fast food staple with great doughnuts), I saw not one but two cute gingers! I'm so lucky.

And I'm sorry if some of these are appearing ginormous; I've tried resizing them all in Photobucket, and rotating them and stuff like that, but it doesn't always appear to have worked. :(





    Preparing snacks for the drive; moments later there was a catastrophe as the cooler crashed and ice cubes went everywhere and a Diet Coke can exploded. :(




    The view from the back seat. Elements of note: my knitting, and my mom on her iPhone.




    Stopping at a ubiquitous highway stop for coffee and for my stepdad, a snack.




    The view of the backyard going to the lake from our family friends' deck.




    Going sailing! It was a very fast trip, but marvelous nonetheless.




    The little pier for their boat. I can easily imagine having coffee and writing in a place like that.

    I'll post today's pictures later on tonight! ♥
