Sauble Beach Summer by Diane Bator
One of my favorite places to visit in the summer is a great beach an hour and a half from my house called Sauble Beach. This quaint little beach town boasts 7km of white sand beach on Lake Huron. Since we moved to Ontario in 2005, it also became our yearly mecca each summer on my birthday. We’d spend the day playing and swimming at the beach, go to a fast food joint called Beach Burger for dinner, then to the boardwalk for ice cream before we’d make the trip home.

Even though the weather wasn’t fabulous until the day we left, the kids and I walked and talked and just generally hung out. It was our last real vacation together before my oldest moved away.
The best part of the entire week was getting to spend those precious moments with my boys and falling asleep to the sound of the surf out the bedroom window. It’s one of those things I’d like to be able to do again one day. Only this time, we’ll rent our own little cottage and hopefully have better weather!
The Bakery Lady by Diane Bator Mystery Back of the Book: The Bakery Lady by Diane Bator, the third book in the Wild Blue Mysteries series. |
“From the moment Leo Blue meets the local tattoo artist's sister Christina, he's drawn into a web of bread dough and lies. Christina Davidson has returned to Packham with a duffle bag full of secrets. Leo soon discovers her biggest secret is Christina's alter ego and her husband, who stands accused of murdering an up-and-coming artist. He promises to help set things straight and plans to bring husband and wife together for Christmas—even if it costs him his sanity and the love of his life.”
"I could visualize that bookstore, smell the coffee and pastries, and see the colorful characters. This book has lots of twists and turns, and I never knew who to trust, all the way to the end. I'll look for future books by this author." ~ Paul Carr

Hey, JQ and nice to meet you Diane. What a lovely memory. I have a question. What are "spider dogs"? I've never heard that term before. Good luck with your release.
Hi Marsha, Beach getaways seem to become favorite memories for many of us. And special when the family is with us. Thank you for stopping in.
Sounds like a wonderful place to spend time with the family. I love the wind chimes!
Hi Misha, Yes, those wind chimes would be perfect for a cottage or MY deck! Thank you for stopping in.
