A Weekend at Portage Lake











We came to the
camp on Saturday and have spent the weekend. It is wonderful to be back to a very special place. Fearing the black fly plague, we have been pleasantly surprised that the wind and a fire in the fireplace have kept them away. Bugs have not been a problem.
Yesterday Ralph and Sharon came up to spend the day with us. We had a great time visiting, eating lunch, and enjoying the outdoors together. We have a couple of pictures of their visit.
Gary has been busy doing chores around the rock wall, raking the beach to get rid of the shells and broken glass, and generally tidying the place.
Louise has been on a knitting frenzy. In this one weekend she has completed a sweater, a pair
of men's socks, a baby bonnet,

and a pair of mittens. She has other projects underway and is pleased with all her progress.
We share some pictures of the camp, hoping they bring the sense of peace and beauty that the real place
brings to all who come here.
