RE: Stoke's Bay Tamarac Island Bruce Peninsula Ontario Canada
You're bringing back memories of childhood camping trips. My dad's first cottage was just outside of Tobermory and it burned down when I was a week old. Every summer holiday was a camping trip until I was in my teens and we bought property on Manitoulin Island.
I so glad to hear that. :) I have a few childhood memories from the area also it's my Dads family rooted here in the 1800's from Scotland. I love the area I have been pondering on whether I should move there.
I was thinking of that just looking at your photos. Ontario is so beautiful in the summer.
I will have to ask my Mom if we ever camped there. I remember camping at a few other places like Dorcas Bay and Cypress Lake, renting a cottage at Miller Lake, hiking the Bruce trail at Pretty Cove and a few other places. We also stopped for smokies (smoked Herring) in Wiarton and saw Wiarton Willy there on one occasion.
You have been to more places than me on the Bruce. You were lucky my family really wasn't into camping. I like camping though.
Manitoulin is similar but without rattlesnakes.
Right on! My cousin and Aunt would love that. :)
My Mom too. They nicknamed a rocky point near the Tobermory cottage as Rattlesnake Point. She used to walk out there and scream!
That is funny! What a wonderful memory.
Yes it is beautiful I don't even mind a short winter ;)
