We spent Thanksgiving at my Brothers camp (cottage) in Dunns Valley, ON. The weather was spectacular! (a little cool at night)
It was the "Maiden Voyage of the "EEE". A very good weekend!

| What a cutie!! |
 |
| You can not hide from me & my camera! |
 |
| Trash Can Turkey |
 |
| The turkey...all spiced up & ready to cook |
 |
| The turkey is in the can...cooking! |
 |
| Might as well take advantage of the coals on top & cook other stuff! |
 |
| Waiting, & cooking............ |
 |
| Turkey is done! |
The turkey cooked pretty quick. It was not the best though.
It was our first "trash can" turkey, & it was really dry, & had a smoky taste.
I think we had it too hot & it started to burn in spots inside the can & the smoke had nowhere to go.

| My Dad |
 |
| My parents camp (cottage) - My favourite place in the world!!! |
The camp is on a remote muskeg lake, over a big hill on a road barely passable with a vehicle,
3 seasons out of 4. If you want to go in the winter, you need a snowmobile.
It is the only cottage on the lake, & just how we like it. (quiet)
Surrounded by towering maples, we tap trees in the spring.
My husband & I will probably be living here, full time & off the grid as soon as the kids are done highschool.

| Mom |
Somewhere behind Mom is where the Yellowstone will live.
 |
| The truck - made it up the cow the cow trail |
The back of the camp & the water tower. Somewhere to the left of the camp is where "Big Ugly" (our 1970's Yellowstone Capri) will have a permanent home.

| Showing off the new doors for the sugar shack - nice smile too! |
 |
| Nice doors Dad!! |
