1 OLD MAPLE

The welcome sign that greets you at the entrance into Port Sydney reads "Home Of 800 Nice Families & 1 Old Grouch". It is also home to 1 Old Maple, that stands alone at the Indian Landing park on the outskirts of town along the Muskoka River. When its leaves change colour it is very picturesque and is the perfect epitome of autumn.

DUCK RACE

I captured this photograph a few days ago of these ducks portaging around the falls at the scenic dam outside Port Sydney. I learned since that today is the Stephenson Lion's Club annual Duck Race, where hundreds of rubber ducks shoot the falls, starting from the dam to the finish line at Indian Landing, for a $2,000 grand prize.
