Haliburton Highlands May 19 - June 1 Weather Outlook

I’m so exited that we’ll be at the cottage for part of this time period. I’m really okay with the slightly higher temperatures as it would be nice if the lake warmed up sooner than later.

This sounds important.

Count on Flood® For Your Outdoor Wood Care #woodcare

Ξ May 4th, 2012 | → 0 Comments | ∇ home, home and garden, opinion, summertime |

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Flood Wood Care for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine.

I love my deck, especially this time of year when the surrounding gardens are beginning to bloom, the leaves are greening and the birds are chirping. My home deck is not really big but I’ve made it cozy with a pretty privacy screen, comfy chairs, a trellis with morning glories and an arbor with corkscrew vines.

There is though one thing missing. Pretty wood. The wood on my deck is bare, aged and gray and to be blunt, it is ugly. Previously, I’ve covered it up with carpet but this year I’m beautifying it so I can enjoy the look of natural wood grain.

My wood deck beautifying begins with treating the gray wood with Flood® brand wood cleaner. With a solid reputation as “The Wood Care Specialist,” I can count on Flood® brand from start to finish on my beautifying project.

Flood® Wood Care has earned their reputation beginning in 1841 as a family business, and continuing through the years, offering dependable finishes that will not only protect yours and my investment but do so with products that help make your wood design options truly yours, personalizing your outdoor wood elements with stylish colors and stain that brings out the beauty in the wood that compliments your home.

I’m actually very exited about my project as I use my deck as I would an extra room. I plan on using the suggested solid color because because the wood is weathered. Now I just need to choose from 51 different color options! I’m thinking either Mulberry which has a subtle, soft brownish hue or I may get a little bit daring and use Tranquil Sea! Mmm, it’s so pretty and as you might guess it’s the color I would expect to see if I were on tropical, by-the-sea vacation!* Either way, I’m so looking forward to refreshing the look of my “summer room!”

I’m very carefully planning to be sure and partake of the many fun things that somehow I’ve missed out on thus far whilst staying on Maple Lake  as I’ll be there both this spring and summer.

MAPLE LAKE ONTARIO – DAYS GONE BYE [PHOTOS] #haliburtonhighlands

Ξ May 3rd, 2012 | → 0 Comments | ∇ Canada, cottage country, family, Maple Lake Ontario, Ontario, personal, Photography, summertime |

Maple Lake - A new day dawns (mid -late 1990's)

MAPLE LAKE 1993 - Roger and Chris

Being born in late August had its benefits for my youngest son in that by the following summer Chris was old enough to enjoy Maple Lake. Here he sits with his dad in the late evening twilight, all ready for bed.

This year–2012–is his 20th year. He’s putting himself through school and won’t be spending time on Maple Lake this summer, maybe not for some summers to come. Regardless, when he’s ready to come back it will be awaiting.

Maple Lake - Peggy, Jim and grandson Chris 1996

This was an eventful summer–the summer that changed everything–but in this moment all seemed right.
