July 26, 2004 - Bryn on the Beach

(Brynioch is 5 months)
Will these sunsets ever stop?!?

July 25, 2004 - Heron Watching

(Brynioch is 5 months)
There's a heron (or something) that hangs out off the point. Sunsets abound!

July 24, 2004 - Our First Weekend at the Lake

(Brynioch is 5 months)
Here's a side shot of the trailer.  It's in pretty good shape, other than needing a good cleaning. Here's the 'Florida Room'.  It's about 1-1/2 times as big as the trailer itself. Here's the kitchen (with the propane check ongoing). This is the 'Dining Room', converted into a bedroom. Another shot of the kitchen, with the two single beds and bathroom beyond that. There are many birds that like to congregate on the point (about 100 feet from our place). The sun goes down after a nice day. Although you would never know it, that's me fishing in the back of that boat (beyond the picnic table).

July 21, 2004 - Back home in Toronto

(Brynioch is 5 months)

July 18, 2004 - Mike and Jill's 6th Anniversary

(Brynioch is 5 months)
Mike 'entertained' the grandkids while Sara raced for her camera.

July 17, 2004 - Golfing and Partying

(Brynioch is 5 months)
Emily, Anders and Luke had fun in the pool on the deck. It's time for the big golf game.  This is the view from the top of hole #1 at Kenosee. Mike's hotrod. Looking for Fran's ball Chris the Golfer Barry was all tuckered out after the golf game. 'Everything Will Be Alright (When We Get To Saskatoon)'

July 16, 2004 - Gathering of the Clan

(Brynioch is 5 months)
Bryn was a bit over-stimulated, so sometimes we had to walk him to sleep.

July 15, 2004 - Playing on the Deck

(Brynioch is 5 months)
Jill spotted this little macrocosm in a 1-inch knothole in the deck.

July 14, 2004 - More fun at Kenosee

(Brynioch is 5 months)
Hanging at the beach Bryn says, 'I'm having a great time!' 'What was that sound?' 'Help, it's gonna get me!!!' 'Just kidding.' It's the Sideways-Hat Boys. Back at the cottage

July 13, 2004 - Relaxing at Kenosee

(Brynioch is 5 months)
I'm a little teapot. We went to see the live show 'Saskatchewan Express' down at the beach.  Bryn was transfixed by the music and dancing. This little girl fell in love with Bryn's red socks.

July 12, 2004 - Like Father, Like Son...

(Brynioch is 5 months)
We pulled out the old photo album, and discovered that Bryn looks much more like his dad than anyone one expected.

July 11, 2004 - Michelle's Birthday Brunch in Lumsden

(Brynioch is 5 months)
It's Mike's sister's birthday today.  (She's really old!) This is Anders, Michelle's son (and Bryn's cousin). This is Emily, Matt and Sara's daughter (and Bryn's oldest cousin). Here's Matt and Sara's other child, Luke, with his mom.  Of all his cousin's, Luke is the closest to Bryn's age.

July 10, 2004 - Bryn's First Flight

(Brynioch is 5 months)
Yolanda's taking care of our house and the animals.

July 4, 2004 - Welcome to the front yard!

(Brynioch is 5 months)

July 3, 2004 - We're moving in!

(Brynioch is 5 months)
Another beautiful morning at the lake!  Mike drove up from Toronto on Friday evening, and took these shots in the morning.  (This adventure started on June 30th.) It's turns out that there's a trailer for sale, right by the waterfront, sitting alongside a spring-fed stream.  After much consideration (including realizing that we can't take 'normal' vacations until Bryn gets older), we decided to buy it.  And here it is.... Here's the stream (which actually runs right through our lot). Helena, watching over Bryn. 'All hail Mitchell, the Sun God!' Connor ponders, 'To be, or not to be...' Back in Toronto, we visited Mike and Vicki, who were celebrating their 4th anniversary. This picture is so bad, that it's good. Bryn's eating some solid food now. One of the neighborhood cats, Zooloo, stopped by to lounge for a while.

July 2, 2004 - Bryn's 5-months Old Today!
