A Windswept Wolf at the Door
A windswept day on the lake for sure, a storm brewin’ and stewin’. Here comes a downpour that would make old Noah nervous. Complete with audio and visual, the thunder and lightning means the fish will have to wait. Let’s see what the cottage library has on the shelf....
Reeling in a Zinger
Alone but not lonely at the cottage (my sane asylum). Out on the water, a line in the lake, reeling from the heat but still reeling them in. I think catching pickerel this big qualifies as weightlifting, but for those of you worried about the fish, have no fear. I...
Lightweight to Hydrate
Apparently, the length of the lawn is directly proportional to the number of days that I don’t mow it, according to my much better half. So despite the torrid heat, it was lawn mowin’ time again. Mowing the lawn tonight was like taking a walk on the sun….with a...
Bear on the Run
The latest small batch beers are great at New Ontario, but I'd recommend sticking with the classics. The Bear Runner Blonde is one of their best beers and I'd definitely recommend it over any other beer.

It’s summertime stout season here on the home front, and some thoughtful visitors wished me Godspeed* with a house and heart warming gift of this nitro dry stout from none other than Godspeed Brewery. A greatly appreciated and most appropriate gift for a COM who loves...

St. Regis lived in France in the 1600s and was recognized as the patron saint of social workers, lace makers, embroiderers and against the plague. There are St. Regis Hotels all over the world*, but I am sure in this case Gateway is paying tribute to a hometown...
A Summertime Stout?
A summertime stout, sacrilege some would say. Sometimes I am out to sea, adrift, unsure and not on shore, that’s for sure. Blown off shore perhaps but more likely through wandering, that being a wandering of the mind variety. Here is my quandry. A stout by the fire is...
Making Light
The name of this brew reminded me of Teddy Roosevelt’s famous foreign policy quote “Walk softly and carry a big stick”.* Of course, “tread lightly” seems to be the not only phrase of the times, but a legal and moral obligation. Heaven forbid if you upset someone,...
Loaded on Home Grown
Moving day and I’m not talking about Saturday at a PGA tournament,* I’m talking about packing up kit and kaboodle and heading on down the road. Well, once that big ass moving truck was loaded I thought it was my turn. Alas, permission to get loaded was not granted by...
