A little getaway

After 2 busy weeks of summer 'work', not to mention the stress and sadness of losing Renoir, Trish and I decided that a little getaway was in order. We often like to escape to the beaches of Lake Huron, but this year, we found a spectacular B and B in Niagara on the Lake and decided to make that our destination. We spent a glorious afternoon around their pool, an evening at the 'Shaw' (compliments of House Seats, YAY), a late night hottub back at the B and B, then the next day, a delicious home cooked breakfast out on their deck, a wine tour at Inniskillen, some wandering and a foodie tour in town, and a leisurely back-roads trip home to finish it off. Wonderful!
Here are some pics from July 23/24.

Their glorious pool where we spent the afternoon!

Such a beautifully landscaped yard.

This was also part of their property, out back!

Their fruit trees were laden and the fruit was used to make their own preserves, which were served for breakfast!

Looking across the Niagara River to the US side.

Yes, you could see T.O.!

This is the fort on the U.S. side.

All the gardens in Niagara on the Lake were full and lush. So beautiful.
