Our Vacation



My Blog … our vacation.

Well, an assertion that the world needs a few more leaders with personalities similar to President Trump, could create interesting arguments from some followers here, which would simply highlight the fact that the chess-playing leader, together with the leader hiding in the Forbidden City, may reverse the historical theory of The Fall of the USA.

But enough of that … I’ve been on vacation.

Mindy took a short sabbatical, and we rented an old log cottage (Supposedly 100 years old) in the Gatineau hills near Wakefield, Quebec.

Old Log Cottage

We were seeking something remote, with meditation in mind at least, that was Mindy’s need, although not something that she admitted to, and the existence of WiFi caused her a great sigh of relief.

Although advertised as being close to riding stables, they turned out to be for livery only, and the promise of deer walking through the acre of land didn’t come true either which, when observing paw prints on the muddy roadside of, none other than a cougar, we felt obliged to walk hand in hand.

"Hold tight, Mindy!"

A chateau that didn't need logs.

Anyway, the stress of everyday life went away,(almost) and, later, a couple of nice days in Ottawa were enjoyed before travelling slowly home.
