From the garden, clockwise from top: a cucumber and three zucchini, Chocolate Cherry tomatoes, and Piennolo del Vesuvio tomatoes. We love the Chocolate Cherry tomatoes – they have good flavour, are a little crack-resistant in variable watering conditions, will ‘volunteer’ next year.
We recently journeyed with friends to Manitoulin Island, at the north end of Lake Huron, for a short holiday. There are two public ways to get there – via a bridge at the north end of the island, or via the Chi-Cheemaun car/passenger ferry from Tobermory, at the end of the Bruce Peninsula. the ferry made the most sense for us.
Here is approaches the dock at Tobermory, before our vehicle, along with many others and passengers for the 1 1/2 hour sailing to Manitoulin.
Fitzi is a handsome and friendly senior statesdog from his kind – four-footeds – to our kind – two-footeds.
