May long weekend in Ontario's cottage country was fantastic & the trend continues...

Mother nature blessed cottage country Ontario over the past May 24, 2010 long weekend with amazing weather...sunny, hot & dry! Many popular beach areas like Wasaga Beach, Barrie's downtown waterfront on Simcoe and Orillia's beaches on Lake Couchiching were a buzz with both pale and burnt people of all ages.

With record breaking, humid temperatures in the 30's it seems as though you're doing (or hoping to do) one of three things either escape into the water, find refuge in the shade or hide indoors with the a/c.
We don't have air conditioning at home nor are we lakeside so shade is where it's at and with this humidity my hair goes poof, thankfully I'm not made of sugar or I'd melt! ...far from the days of intentionally baking myself on the beach.

Lake Dalrymple, Ontario sunset, fire pit and home of the instant S'moresfest! Giant marshmallows, milk chocolate and graham squares. I love the later two but those big, gummy white blobs don't do it for me ;) ...there were fireworks too but, those pics didn't work out. Hope you had a safe and happy long weekend and cheers to the next one in July!!
