Shauna will be visiting her friends back in Sarnia for her summer hols, so she has decided to take some maple products as a hostess gift. It makes sense because our county styles itself as the Maple Syrup Capital of the province. The closest sugar camp, Fultons, is only about 20 minutes north of us. Sha does work for a living, and Fultons is only open for a few hours twice a week, so she asked us to run the errand for her.
Once we leave town we are soon into rural Ontario. There being an interesting sky, Sue wanted to stop for a photo, and I took one too, just for you folk. Look at the rough road, which caused a bit of a rattling ride for our car with non-viable shock absorbers.
Fortunately, the road soon became less bumpy although it remained gravelly.
Then, we saw a young deer just off the side of the road. We stopped at some distance for a photo, but after awhile, when it didn't bound off, we inched closer, so I got a pretty good photo.
The deer is so beautiful, a stunning animal.
ReplyDeleteThe maple syrup place looks interesting, and the containers are very attractive.
Love maple syrup, but not sure about bar-b-que sauce. Would love to hear what the ingredients might be! Super photos. Don't know where Sarnia is so I looked it up. So many Canadian towns I've not heard of!!
ReplyDeleteTaught there and started this blog there. Just across the river form Porrt Huron, Michigan.
DeleteThat bumpy ride paid off in that you got some wonderful close-up images of the young deer, AC, and bbq sauce too!
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a double day -- you did a nice thing for Shauna and had a wonderful time yourself. What a charming looking place. It all sounds delicious! That's a great idea for a hostess gift.
