We went out on a drive last Wednesday and ended up in Port Hope, my favorite small Ontario town. The beach was absolutely deserted except for the seagulls who were few in number. There was a stiff southerly breeze which kept the wasps at bay and the sun was belting down. Heaven! After some time relaxing on the sands I headed out into the waves. Normally I do my lake or ocean swimming alone as the better half will get wet only if the water is clean and warm. I struggled on one good leg with the waves and had to ask for help, so in he came. Who would have thought it. He had a good time! He was laughing! I had no camera! No, I am not lying! We rolled around in the lake for quite a while then back to the beach to dry off. By then school was out and the kids were wandering down so we packed up.
Oh yes, I forgot the granny. There was a frail elder also battling the high seas. She had a mop of silver hair and purple streaks in it. My people!!!
I love Port Hope.
