Nichol Farm, Athens, Ontario Sept 3, 2006

Here is Pook's (longest, not oldest friend's) heritage stone farmhouse in Athens, about 40 minutes north of the Thousand Island bridge from the US. The gardens are wonderful. Wiltse Lake and the trumpeter swans are past the porch addition, and the apple trees, under which the ceremony was supposed to be, are behind the house. Ernesto, the hurricane is visible in the sky.
