We'll be Your Hosts Today

I returned to Lake Ottawa to find Gary already moved into the host site, our name signs already in place.
I found Gary getting a good fire going, necessary since he had already asked other campers to join us for hot beverages and apple pie. It is what Anita would do.It also meant that he now would have a use for all those chairs he insists on bringing along. Meanwhile, he rests beside the fire, getting up occasionally to chop wood.
We  now have electricity and water on our site, which makes posting this blog so much easier. We are right next to the best toilets in the campground. We have our own beach down the hill.  Across the lake the trees are changing color but the big lake moderates temperatures so the process is slower here than it would be in the middle of the forest.
As the sun goes down, the lake shimmers. Looks like we'll love being camp hosts, even for this short time.
