The Muskokas

A few weeks ago I planned a weekend surprise trip for my husband to The Muskokas.  I decided that we would stay at Deerhurst Resort because if it was good enough for the G8 summit, it would probably be good enough for the five of us.  Saturday & Sunday's weather forecast called for rain, rain and more rain.  We were certain that we would spend the majority of the trip indoors.  In actuality, it did not rain once!  We were surrounded by sunshine, warm temperatures and beautiful fall colors.  Highlights included kayaking in the lake, off-roading in a Hummer, hiking the "Lookout Trail" and enjoying the night skies without the Toronto light pollution.  I really have no words for this trip.  It was absolutely amazing and I can't wait to return.  I hope these photos convey even a small iota of the beauty of this magnificent location.
