First of all I would like to give a shout out to Sheila and Lin in the town of Darkness, across the harbour from Hell, in the land that time forgot who check out the blog from time to time.

OVER DOSE ALERT!!! 2ND sighting of Itchy Richie in 3 years!!!
So, we've been a little slow on the updates 'cause we've been busy. We installed a new "on demand" hot water heater in the bathroom which entailed taking everything out. While everything was out we painted the room. The dryer was moved out to the garage while the renos were on the go. Grasshopper really liked the extra room in the bathroom without the dryer. Since we rarely used the dryer we decided to leave it out which required more work like removing propane pipes for example.
Then we did the bedroom with tongue and groove panelling primed and painted blue.
Lots of geese going south the past couple of weeks. Last night we heard a flock land in our bay after dark. They were gone when I got up this morning.
George, looking especially happy.
Not Dawg. We call this the robin's branch, but we have had every kind of bird land on it, even a great blue heron.
This is Dawg.
Evert's new mail box. Crazy Newfie.
Grasshopper saw this in the middle of a parking lot in North Bay.
A mother raccoon and 3 youngsters shot thru a window at dusk.
A little video.
Mrs. Slate working the fire wood.
Dawg supervising from the roof of the side-by-side.
Starting to get some colour on the property. That's "color" for the SYZs in Gowanda. Just sayin'.
This big boy has been coming around the past 2 days trying to impress the ladies.
A long, and sometimes blurry video.
Right on, right on, right on,
Har, har, get it?

Alive and still kickin' while on my own. Actually my neighbours have been feeding me pretty good. Turkey dinner, stuffed chicken thighs, steak dinner, Moroccan chicken. There is still a bag of frozen KFC hot wings in the freezer as a back up plan. 
Mrs. and her chicks are still coming to be fed.
Mrs. is molting and has lost her tail.
Probably a female.
Male?
September 1st, first geese going south. Early this year. At least 3 flocks that morning. Have they been reading the Farmer's Almanac?
The sun is slowly moving to the south so we are starting to see the sun sets.
Saturday morning was 7.3C. Friday was actually 6C.
Fog at the beach.
It was a very good year for the mergansers with flocks of 17 to 20 chicks. But no baby loons on Lil' Tomiko this year.
Sunday morning pea soup.
It didn't take long to clear up to a nice day,
but there was still lots of fog on the round end.
We had the annual meeting of the Tomiko Conservation Association at the landing.
Mr. Big came by this morning.
I call this one "Yellow Flower".
