North Bay’s Main Street has developed a little section of elegant, neatly designed storefronts.
“Pearls” is one.
The colours in the designs are incorporated upward to the second stories of the old buildings as well.

Indian Summer
It may be a bit early to be using the term as we haven’t had much cold weather but this past weekend was particularly nice.
The water is not too cold yet for a bit of kayaking:
Another advantage of living in the North!

Reincarnation
Back from the dead!
Last spring, things were looking bleak.
New life from old. Gives one hope!

Elegant Interiors
One storefront on our Main Street:
Unfortunately it looks like North Bay doesn’t need interiors, elegant or otherwise…

Yellow Screen Door
Love the yellow screen door!
This definitely brightens up an already bright day.

Hot!
A friend grows Chili Peppers.
A small piece from any of these will make your tongue come alive!
“Thai Dragon”, “Habanero ‘Kukulkan'”, “Purira”, “Prairie Fire”, “Bulgarian Carrot”, are names that carry just a hint of their potency.
The word for me is “Look. Don’t eat!”

Early Fall Afternoon
It’s not officially fall yet but yesterday was the first really cool day for what seems like months.
A little reminder of things to come.

Logo
I don’t know if it’s an original design by the owner, but the logo for Sunbeam Bungalows is very effective.
The message, “sun, sand, relaxation,shelter,tradition, vacation, fun, summer”, is there.
An unpretentious place to stay.

Sunbeam Bungalows
On the sandy shore of Callander Bay is the Sunbeam Bungalows marina. The bungalows are across the road from here in a grove of red pine trees.
The unique logo attracted my attention.
It’s always a sunny day when you vacation here.

If I Were a Rabbit
The kids who gardened in Sweetman’s Garden this summer have a sense of humour…
…and artistic ability as well!
Were I a rabbit, I’d certainly take advantage!

Treasure Mill
What treasures lie within these walls?
I must go back when it opens.

Primary Colours
A pair of posts on Silverpixel’s Blog suggested this exercise in photographing strong colours in Downtown North Bay.
Thanks for the inspiration, Mike.
(Still living at the cottage, so posts have to come in batches. Come September it’s back to one or occasionally two photos a day!)

Afternoon on Lake Nosbonsing
We have been living at the cottage since the beginning of July and have no ability to process or post photographs. Dial-up prevents this and is very frustrating besides. So much for “The Good ‘ol Days”!
Here are three that I made yesterday while kayaking around the shores of the lake…

Water plants:
An amazing way to spend an afternoon.
