A Weekend by the (Inland) Sea

I spent the weekend with Toots and Padre at this cute little cottage at Sandy Hook.

Padre's sister bought the cottage a few years ago for a song as the roof was caving in, and the whole place was in a sad state.

They did a number of renovations including opening up the dormer in the attic so it made a very cool skylight in the living room.

The rest of the house maintained its original charm.

Last year Padre's father laid all the laminate flooring, no mean feat, even if he wasn't a sprightly 95 years of age at the time.
Early morning after a rain looking east over Lake Winnipeg. It was a lovely weekend.
