Algae Every Where

What does Thursday, Friday and Saturday have in common? Rain. Everything is green with algae. I have slipped on mud and stones
covered in green slime. I have barbecued in the rain, the mist and the almost sun. The point of getting away is not to think of work, somehow I did check my work email and started to plan out the week. Dad and I cleaned up a fallen tree branch, put grass seed down, chainsawed the branch and cleaned up around the cottage. Lincoln is one tired puppy. He went in the water several times and chased a squirrel. Dad yelled from the top of hill for me to grab my camera cause he found a turtle. Me and Lincoln ran all the way up and stopped in front of the turtle. Dad stared at me waiting for my reaction. I stared at the turtle and stared at dad and back to the turtle.

Opening Up the Cottage

First the packing, trying to pack the essentials, pack the food, clothes, camera and other stuff.
Then the long drive up with the usual stops. Gas, grocery store, Tim Horton's and Home Hardware in Minden for a pit stop and last minute supplies. I bought Kevin a tan tshirt, camo baseball cap and deer fly patches for the hat ... early birthday gifts.
We arrived about 6 pm to enjoy the murder of blackflies at the landing. The water is real high reaching the first step. The corner of the beached dock is in the water. Strangely there are few bugs here.
We woke up to a thunderstorm and rain that lasted the whole afternoon.

There is one huge branch down and the porch and second cabin's roof is stll leaking.
