Road Trip

A week ago Sunday, Iain and I took a little spin up by the cottage, to see a gentleman who makes canoe yokes. Iain's canoe is coming along really well now. The inside is epoxied and scraped. This photo was taken before the gunnels going on. The finish will look a whole lot nicer when the final product is varnished.The man at Slipstream, who makes the yokes, has a friendly (once you are introduced, that is) old doggie, whose picture I had to take.
On the way home we stopped at the Granary in Eganville for some comfort food. They serve a beer which is a full litre, in a glass so large that Iain's (at present) bum elbow gave him a little trouble. He is not holding it extra close to the camera - it is really that big!
I drove home, just to be on the safe side.

That is an impressive stein!

I like dogs that are discerning.

An aquarium-sized mug indeed.

It's Winter....

 Not a fan, but winter is something one survives (hopefully) so that spring may occur. I miss Stitches, very much. Fortunately, we have Jasp...
