I love sitting on our front porch! Morning coffee and checking emails, afternoon iced tea and looking at a book. How about finding shade on a hot day, just sitting on the porch in your wet bathing suit.
At the Lake Cottage
Cottage life at our summer vacation home on a tiny island in Manitoba Canada. This is about some of our activities,~ fun, food, boating, family, nature, photography, quotes, decorating and repairs.

The Front Porch 2025
This coming season we intend to work a lot on the exterior of the cottage and the different outdoor spaces. I think a little paint and a lot of love will make this area so much better. I’m not talking about changing the chairs or even the door - which has its own issues. Just a little facelift, and making it a little more cozy.
Consider these before pics and please check back in a couple months for some “after photos”. 😉
