WINTER ROADS

We live on a cottage road which means the cottagers are responsible for maintaining it. 


To me it looks pretty good for a cottage road. The snow has been pushed back and the road surface is solid. Once it starts to thaw that will be a different matter but for the moment all is good.



The municipal road is wider, sanded more frequently and plowed as soon as the snow stops. Definitely a superior road but we are very happy with our cottage road.



Like most of Ontario we've seen more snowfall this winter than in the past ten, yet we've never been trapped or unable to get out when needed. I think we are doing just fine with our cottage road.

Just think in another three months the leaves will be out, the snow will be gone and new life will appear in the forest.

Living up here we just seem more aware of the seasons and the changes each bring. We even enjoy the winter by our wood stove.

Safe travels everyone and thanks for stopping by.
