Whilst we didn't have the perfect weekend and found ourselves sleepless for much of it, it is always lovely to get away to Muskoka. An expansive area only 2 hours drive from Toronto full of lakes and forests and critters. We stayed at a resort, which was hosting a few events, and were placed next to the elevators. This meant the constant 'ping-ing' of their doors and noisy drunken patrons returning to their rooms into the wee small hours. The hotel moved us the following morning and things improved, but Poppet seemed unable to sleep either night. This meant none of us did.
Still, we tried to make the best of it. Beautiful surroundings, someone else doing the cooking, a swimming pool, and a dayspa for me. It wasn't a total loss by any stretch.
And of course, I got to play with my new camera! I am very much a beginner when it comes to DSLRs but am happy with the shots so far. After the nonsense my old point and shoot was producing, these photos are a blessed relief.
Here's a few of them...

| One of the only sleeps she managed. |

| Gorgeous morning fog. |
 |
| The resort. |
 |
| Small but pleasurable pile of snow. |
 |
| Deep enough to lose your boot in! |
How much do I love my new camera?!
Wowsers, even in a weekend I've taken some pretty special shots. Product shot experimentation to follow.
And more photos for y'all to enjoy in general. Lucky, I think there's some snow a-comin'....
