Every Thanksgiving Day (in Canada) weekend we take a walk at Crawford Lake - it's a beautiful, geologically unique little lake left behind as the glaciers receded 10,000 years ago, and it's one of the better conservation aresa here in Halton. It's also connected to the Bruce Trail, and you can hike over to Rattlesnake Point from it. Unfortunately, like last year, the colour change of the leaves is a bit delayed, so it isn't as beautiful as it is going to be in a week or two. We'll have to return there then.

Yesterday (Saturday, October 8th) we visited the Rockton World's Fair. It was a really great fall fair, and all in all was one of the better ones we've enjoyed (it and the Caledonia Fair from last weekend were the best we've ever seen). If anything, the Rockton fair seemed more legitimately rural than most.

It had all of the requisite animal shows, competitions in countless categories, and a half decent little midway for a little fair. Great fun was had by all.
