Dad came to Canada back in 2011 to stay with us girls. Sharing his time with all of us. Dad wanted to come to the cottahe for a few days, so we packed up my three kids, 2 cats and off we went for a 5 hour trip to get to the cottage. Dad had heard about the cottage for years but didn’t really grasp how long it took to get there and that it is alot of work. Once we get to the lake we have to unload the van and load the boat, and off we go again for a 20 minute boat ride to the island. Once at the island we unpack again. Dad was impressed by the beauty of Lake Temagami and loved spending his days outside down at the dock watching the kids water ski, tube and kayak. Dad even went out for a canoe ride with me. He loved fishing off the dock. He went fishing with wayne and the kids and really enjoyed having a fish fry the next day with the fish they caught.
