Home sweet home…..

 

Our Location:

Home, Tehkummah, Ontario

We left Valens Conservation Area in Flamborough, Ontario after dumping the tanks, disposing of our garbage and depositing the swipe card in the bucket, the time read 8:23 AM, Thursday morning. 

The Swing Bridge that takes us from mainland to island.

The first town as you cross over the bridge.

A few rain drops, a few sunny moments and various shades of blue in the sky had us hoping everything would stay on forecast, no rain until overnight. We did well, we stopped 3 times in our 8 hour drive. We were up the big hill, turned around, parked and level by 4:30 pm. Not bad! 

Some snow still around on the ground.

Spring flowers too.

A couple of drop ins at Dad’s but he was sleeping, he is currently battling with shingles and at 87, it is a big job. He is pretty much over the rash/blisters but the pain is still intense. I am shortly heading out the door, 6:10 AM for coffee, so will be better able to judge for myself.

Parts from this tractor….

Fixed this tractor.

It is good to be home, still some snow in places, the most I can remember in our years of camping here, although we are about a week earlier than usual. Red Gads are definitely hinting at spring, a very green tinge to the grass, even a little green in the chives and onions. On a morning walk I found a teeny, tiny morel. A definite sign of spring.

Of course the winter cut…

Still waiting for splitting and piling.

Over the next number of days we will settle in but Monday will find us off to the voting station, the mail box and the Township Office, so I see very little outside or cabin work that day. We also need to purchase a few things to get the gardens ready. The joys of returning and setting up.

Thanks for stopping by.

Until next time….

Take care, stay safe,
