Hey Jenny - I didn't realize you were still up.  You're getting a lot of mileage out of your Bronte Park visit, eh?

That bench is a very popular conversation piece.  Yesterday, I saw the same bench on a blog of a couple who spent their weekend up north and the couple was wondering why no one was relaxing on it. :)

Thanks for the walking tour.

Great Shots Jenny, why don't you set up a picnic lunch and we can meet at the bench.  If Marc can drag himself away from the feebies at TREB, maybe he would come along.

Jenny, I like the tree with your shadow, the weetabix and the stairway to Lola.  She's certainly getting plenty of exercise. That stairway looks might steep  :)  I'm sure she loves it too.

Hi Jenny, these are just beautiful photos of Bronte Creek. I had to laugh at your Stairway to Heaven Lola!  It looks like you are enjoying a spectacular fall up there!  Hope you enjoy your week!

Hi Jenny.  That does look to be a place you could build a real nice fire...

I love the seasons!

Thanks for writing,

Nice collection of photos from your area Jenny!  The escallating trail stairway with leaves, seems to be saying to the bench, "Soon snow will fall, and we'll be lonely until spring."

Hey Al and Peggy - No more freebies in 2009 at TREB.  :(

Need to wait until mid January 2010 for more freebies.  The January freebies have been postponed by about a week since some people will still be coming back from vacation.  We agreed that we would enjoy lunch since we'll be there for a few hours.  I guess there will still be refreshment freebies but everything has been in the morning to date. :)

Will you be up north in mid January?

Hi Marc, there were some great photo ops at the Park.  I haven't even shown you all the peacocks, playbarn, pigs, goats, bunnies.  Bet you can't wait lol.

Hi Liz, I know you like benches too.  We should ask people to send us bench photos and do a big Active Rain collage.

Jim - someday I shall walk beside you in person.  Then you can take me to that pizza place by the water.

Hi Charles, I love old barns.  Someday they will all be gone so nice to see that some are being preserved.  My sister and husband just built a new automated dairy barn so the old red one will be coming down soon.

Hi Jennifer - You like old barns also?  I will "trip out" with you any day.  Thanks for coming along on my walk with me.

Al and Peg, I will hae a bench lunch with you anyday.  Marc can bring the food.

Hi Caron - Yea the "kindling" was pretty thick.  It looked so lovely laying there in the creek.  Lola has a habit of creeping into my shots.

Hi Patricia - Yes that was kind of weird.  I was taking a photo of the tree and noticed my shadow on it.  It wasn't even 5 o'clock yet but the sun was getting ready to set so it made for some nice shots.

Hi Sylvie - there is a path near the stairs which I used to come down but since Lola took the stairs up I figured I could too.  They were a bit steep.

Hi Connie Lou - you grew up on a farm?  Where?  What kind of farm was it?  I enjoy visiting my sister's farm but don't think I could live on one.  Too much work lol.

Hi Debi - I enjoy taking photos of lonely benches.  I didn't have time to sit down on it as it was almost sunset and I had to find my way back out of the forest.

Hi Fred, I had to laugh.  I went to the store and saw some cereal called Muffets and they looked exactly like my photo.  Yum.

Hi Mary, alas we are seeing less and less colour.  Still haven't seen that white colour on the ground though so that's a bonus.

Hi Ken, I have a feeling it would be a pretty smokey fire.  That wood is probably pretty wet.  How's the fishing these days? Have you been out much?

Hi Myrl you are right.  Hopefully it won't be a long winter. hmmm.  There are actually some cross country ski trails at the park so it really is a year round facility.

Hi Jenny - That was a pleasant "walk" I just took with you!  Lovely photos, but have you noticed that there is a face in your shadow on the tree? Kinda spooky!

Susan, you are very perceptive.  I did see it but wasn't sure if anyone would think I was crazy.  Here's  closeup.

Jenny, If you're crazy, then I must be too, because I spotted that face right away!  I was surprised that no one else had mentioned it.
