Summer 2014 in Ontario

Some garden goodies. Potatoes, herbs and fresh garlic. Is there anything better?

I want to recreate this picture in miniature form now.

This summer has been very busy and I am looking forward to some guilt free down time so that I can make some minies. I just finished math camp (I am an organizer for Queen's U girls math camp), before that I was volunteering for the summer games and before that was Elo time and conferencing.

This year Elo and I paddled the French River in Ontario. (see proof below)

The canoe trip was really great. We had some okay weather and some really lovely scenery. The only problem was the ambush that happened right before dark. An unbearably thick swarm of mosquitoes would attack as soon as the sun went down. This forced us into an early slumber every night.

Wild blueberries were in season and just about everywhere we looked.
