We were off to a slow start this morning doing a few chores. My friend Joanne found out that the Burleigh Falls Inn was closed for a private function so she recommended we go to the Lovesick Lake Restaurant instead.<\/p>\n

We looked the restaurant\u2019s location up on Google Maps which indicated it would be a half hour walk. But we could see on the map that there was a short cut across the parking lot to the highway and then a 5-minute walk across the bridge to the restaurant.<\/p>\n

We chose the right day to go there because they were closing for the season the next day. It was a homey and cozy place with delicious food and excellent customer service.<\/p>\n

Joanne and Randy met us at the restaurant and we had a lovely catchup over lunch. We told them about some of our recent boating adventures, including the Nutty Bean Caf\u00e9 in Lakefield. Joanne said that the caf\u00e9 was actually the home of earlier ancestors of hers \u2013 the Sherins \u2013 who owned that building and a few other properties on the same street. I had commented on the wonderful front porch on that building and wondered what life would have been like for the people who lived there \u2013 small world!<\/p>\n

Joanne and Randy invited us to come and spend the afternoon with them at their home on Stoney Lake which we readily accepted. After a couple of short stops for supplies, we arrived at their lovely home on the water, steeped in family history and beautifully landscaped. We enjoyed a peaceful afternoon on their dock drinking wine and sharing stories.<\/p>\n

One of the nicest afternoons that we have had this summer. Their place on Stoney Lake looks across the water to Hells Gate passage that we had gone through the day before on our way to Burleigh Falls lock.<\/p>\n

They drove us back to the lock and we had decided to stay there for another night. Tomorrow we will go through the last two locks \u2013 Lovesick Lake and Buckhorn and will arrive at Buckhorn Yacht Harbour Marina in the early afternoon. Then our boating adventure for this summer comes to an end and the packing up begins!<\/p>\n
