What an exciting day for Stephen Elmhirst who took a break from the kitchen to attend driving school at Shannonville Motorsport Park. Lots of leaning in the turns.
Dad Peter was also pretty excited just watching the driving skills put to the test on the track. Delighted to say rider and spectator returned home safe and sound, with a better appreciation of the sport.

Tomorrow school starts...little Nadiya is very excited....there's only so much fun a kid can take!

What a perfect weekend to end summer..lots of sunshine, waterfront activity and many families enjoying the great outdoors. September is the best time to getaway and find yourself at a lakeside resort(the autumn colours are nice too).

Yet another gorgeous day on Rice Lake...the waterfront was busy with waterskiers and tubing, kayaks and canoes, peddleboats and boaters. Last hurrah so to speak.

These ducks were hiding under a low hanging tree off shore....too much activity for some.

Happy 91st Birthday to a very young MaryBelle Elmhirst, matriarch of the Elmhirst family.
Congratulations to Ferne & Gerry Anderson who celebrated their 60th Anniversary with friend Ronald MacKay at the Friday Night Supper Club in the Wild Blue Yonder.
Happy 90th Birthday to both Lucy & Roy Legassicke of Keene. Roy has been a greeter at the Resort for many years.

It was a lovely evening on the outdoor patio. The English family and friends wanted to make the most of the pleasant weather, enjoying the sunset over dinner. It's going to be a super September weekend. Wish you were here!

Cruising by the resort this week you would have seen families fishing off their docks, waterski activity, airplanes landing, guests reading and enjoying the amazing weather. The fiery red sunrises and the full moon on the water have been spectacular - if you're not here, you don't know what you're missing. The Labour Day Weekend forecast promises more of the same!

Blue skies and sunshine were the order of the day! I just couldn't help taking these photos of a professional photographer taking a photo of the aircraft landing and taking off.
