Elora
Yesterday the weather was beautiful so we drove up to Elora, it was so warm that we got pestered by a wasp while trying to picnic.
Last time we were up here I took photos of the Mennonite buggies in the car park, yesterday there was a multitude of horses of the steel variety.
Elora is popular for its picturesque shopping area and historic buildings, its rather like Kirby Lonsdale but with a large abandoned mill. There is also an impressive gorge and the steps down into it were open so we got down to the river for a walk.
Here's the view down into it first. I do like a nice industrial looking bridge.
And here's Rose and some of the last bits of good fall colour.
There were lots of hidey holes in the rock faces for things to hide in. The kids climbed into one and discovered that rock climbing up real rocks is a little more difficult when you don't have coloured rubber hand holds.

Happy Halloween
Well hello there. Let's gloss over the recent radio silence and get straight on with Halloween.
Jacob decided he's too old to go trick or treating so I got him scary gloves to wear while dishing out sweets to the little kids.
Rose was a ghost bride. I had a lot of fun making her costume, specially the headdress veil thing. People kept telling her she looked beautiful which she didn't know quite what to make of as she was trying to be scary.
If anyone's looking to get married and needs bridal accessories on the cheap (plastic spiders included in the very reasonable prices) just give me a call. I also do make up!
