BOTTLE LOTTO

One thing my boys look forward to during their visits here is having Muskoka Dry Pale Ginger Ale, a treat connected to many memories. Outside the factory, a vending machine dispenses the coldest ones around, for only a dollar, and is often stocked with random bottles, and it's a novelty when one scores an unique one in the bottle lotto.

IF A TREE...

One may be familiar with the question, "If a tree falls in the forest, does anybody hear?". A modern variation might now be, "If a tree grows in the forest, does anybody hear?". The answer is Yes, if you are a subscriber with Bell, who recently erected 20 communication towers disguised as coniferous trees, to blend amidst the scenery.

C-DAY

Looking like a nautical war scene, a flotilla of boats waiting to storm the shore after the barrage of firepower is over, in reality is another spectacular Canada Day fireworks celebration held at The Rosseau. I watched the show from the shore along with hundreds of guests and visiting cottagers, where we waged a real battle with the mosquitos.
