Muskoka Seasons: PREP TOUR
http://muskokaseasons.blogspot.com/2014/07/prep-tour.html
Thursday, July 17, 2014. It was a beautiful day for cruising Lake Muskoka, where I joined Muskoka Conservancy staff and other volunteers in visiting the two cottages that will be featured on the Summer Cottage Tour. Several boats were needed to shuttle us all between locations, where we were given an orientation of both properties and learned our roles for the following day, when the sold-out tour takes place and the destinations are revealed, with the Wenonah II.

Muskoka Seasons: January 2013
http://muskokaseasons.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, January 22, 2013. During the summer, one of my favourite places to visit and enjoy a cold one is Windermere House, with its outdoor patio overlooking the lake. With the temperature at -25°C, it was a cold one today when I stopped by while exploring the area, and learned the Lady of the Lake is currently undergoing some room renovations for the season ahead.

Muskoka Seasons: June 2013
http://muskokaseasons.blogspot.com/2013_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 20, 2013. The stone walls of Fort Johnston still remain, named after Benjamin Johnston, an early pioneer and the first postmaster of Port Carling. Concerned about the potential threat of attack from Fenian raids, it was built strategically atop a rocky promontory that commanded a view of the Indian River and any invaders, but now offers a scenic view busy with boaters, and with the Canadian flag flying proudly.

Muskoka Seasons: ROCKET 88
http://muskokaseasons.blogspot.com/p/rocket-88.html
Mention Rocket 88 today and it sounds like the prefix of an e-mail account, however for those old enough to remember, it may conjure up fond memories of times and roads travelled. Join me now if you will for a road trip into the past and bring along your imagination. 1953 also saw the growth of the buy now pay later mentality, with car makers leading the way by allowing longer periods to pay for your new car. In March of 2008, Archie Pain did what he was always accustomed to doing: driving his Chrysler 3...

Muskoka Seasons: July 2014
http://muskokaseasons.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Friday, July 25, 2014. We weren't hunting for Indian Pipe when we happened upon some, including this cluster with its pink variation. Often mistaken for a fungus due to its colour, it is a plant that lacks chlorophyll, the green pigment responsible for photosynthesis. It instead receives its nutrition from parasitizing fungus that are in turn connected to trees, an unique and interesting arrangement. Posted by Malcolm Robertson. Friday, July 18, 2014.

Muskoka Seasons: HEAVEN
http://muskokaseasons.blogspot.com/2014/08/heaven.html
Friday, August 8, 2014. For a brief moment I thought I had died and was on my way to Heaven, heading down a dark passageway toward a beckoning bright light but then remembered I was paddleboarding in Muskoka and already in Heaven!

Muskoka Seasons: February 2014
http://muskokaseasons.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 19, 2014. Imagine, if you will, this cairn buried beneath snow. When I recently visited the Aubrey White cairn at High Falls, its multiple layers of rocks reminded me of the number of snowfalls it seems we've experienced this winter and its height, at over 14 feet, the amount of snow we've received so far! Posted by Malcolm Robertson. Sunday, February 2, 2014. We certainly didn't need confirmation from a groundhog that this winter has decided to pull up a Muskoka chair and stay awhile!
