Road Trip – Day One
…Toronto to Cornwall
We got a late start on Friday. Kevin’s appointment took longer than he planned on and consequently we didn’t leave Toronto till 1:00. Normally that time would have avoided rush hour but it is Canadian Thanksgiving this weekend and everyone was trying to get out of the city early. The first hour of our trip was just getting out of Toronto.
We arrived in Cornwall 5 1/2 hours later. The hotel had a nice restaurant attached to it so we decided to take advantage of this convenience. The weather was not advantageous for walking and it turned out that there was not a lot to see in Cornwall so we had an early night.
The next morning we had breakfast in the same restaurant and then packed the car for day two of our trip.

Textures in Art at MOCA
…Phyllida Barlow’s Eleven Columns
At the end of our son’s trip to Toronto we decided to check out the new Fall show at MOCA (Museum of Contemporary Art). The one exhibition featured the British artist, Phyllida Barlows who sadly passed away earlier this year. Her installations were created from inexpensive, low grade materials such as cardboard, fabric, plywood, styrofoam and cement. As a result her pieces are very textural and fun to look at.

Weekly Prompts Wednesday Challenge – Late Bloomer
…thanks to Sue W and GC for hosting Weekly Promptshttps://weeklyprompts.com/2023/09/13/weekly-prompts-wednesday-challenge-late-bloomer/
While at baking this past week we noticed that the garden bed behind the inn was producing some very late butternut squash. Sadly many of these won’t grow to maturity because they are very late bloomers but you never know. If we get a few more weeks of warm summer weather some of them might have a chance.
