Bruce has killed the septic field so its time to feed it.

Bruce also dons Sarah's wetsuit to put in the water intake and the floating dock.

Cliff builds a new kitchen gadget just in time for BBQ season. The Wireless Pepper Mill!

Bruce and Cliff have to borrow tools to get an early start on fixing the dock. Again.

Cliff builds a potato cannon, but not just any potato cannon.

Thanks to a Pentium 4 cpu fan and a can of spray ether, this baby packs quite a punch and Cliff is already planning the thanksgiving dinner.

Its an early taste of summer at the cottage.

I setup a wireless video stream for the mouse spa. Unfortunately our lack of connectivity foils us again.

A belated merry Christmas from Bruce and myself as well as all the gang at the cottage

Karen did an incredible xmas tree as usual. We also did some outdoor decorating as well as sampling some bevies.

This was mostly a finish getting ready for winter kind of weekend. We closed up the crawlspace vents and Bruce did another upgrade to the mousey spa to Revision 3.0.

We also went for a drive through the Wahta Mohawk reserve and nothing says late fall colors like all the indian smokes signs at almost every driveway. Especially "Smokes on The Wahta".

This time Cliff builds a bench for the back hall so they can sit down when they return from partying with the Barns Boys late at night

They also get a visit from Mr. Plow while "The Women Folk" work on filling the kindling box
