The photos have piled up from the road trips the most amazing man in the world and I took this summer, and I will share some of them with you throughout the next few weeks, or rather, months.
Today it's all about the lovely village of Westport, Ontario.
 |
| We take walks around the neighbourhood while we're there to get a feel for the area. |
 |
| Westport Harbour |
This tiny hidden gem with a population of less than 700 is about a 30 � 40 minute drive north of where we live. It is a very popular tourist destination, and we visit it every summer.
 |
| Wonderfully dilapidated! |
 |
| The irises were in bloom when we were there. |
The first settlers to the area arrived between 1810 and 1820, and the village of Westport was incorporated as an independent municipality in 1904. It is one of Ontario�s smallest ones.
 |
| Being near the water is very soul-soothing. |
 |
| Double trouble... |
It is surrounded by waterways, which is the primary reason why Westport appeals so much to me. As my regular blog visitors know, I�m always happiest by the water.
 |
| A boat lover's paradise. |
 |
| I could have stayed here all day. |
The weather during this year�s visit was overcast with little to no wind; ideal for capturing reflections in the water.
 |
| The water was amazingly calm that day. |
 |
| I find this little home so charming. |
Visiting this enchanting and picturesque village forces you to slow down and relax. And we certainly do that every time we�re there.
 |
| Some fluffy clouds would have been the icing on the cake, but at least there was no wind. |
 |
| This view made me smile. |
We are very fortunate to have such a quaint and charming location nearby, and look forward to our next visit.
Have a wonderful Wednesday, everyone!
