We're building our dream cottage this year. We have a lovely waterfront lot on a point of land on a small lake in Southern Ontario.

Trimmed up

Woo hoo!! The window trim is up now and it makes a huge difference in the feel of things.

So today, I concentrated on tidying up and "nesting". I got the large rug down in the great room and the small dining table back in place. The bed made up and the down comforter on it.

While I was doing that, Bill cut down a few cedars that we have to sacrifice for the dock area. We'll use the logs along with a few more that we've collected to build a small cedar log fence near the parking area. We planted some decorative grass and honeysuckle there last week and I'd like the honeysuckle to be able to climb on the fence. The butterfly's and hummingbirds should love it. We also planted another trumpet vine in the corner of the front deck. Another plant intended to attract the hummers. There is a pair that visits us regularly. They must have their nest nearby, we're not there 10 minutes before they're hovering waiting for me to fill the feeders up.

We didn't stay very long this weekend. The weather was dreary and the mosquitoes vicious. So no cedar post holes dug, but it still feels like we're almost there. A feeling we're beginning to really look forward to enjoying.
