24/07: Sauble Beach

Posted by: The Agnew Family
Ed needed to get away from the house for some much deserved R&R so we took our neighbor up on their offer of joining them at the their cottage for the weekend. Sauble Beach is only fifty minutes from the house on the shores of Lake Huron. Rob and Ellen's cottage is a couple of blocks from the lake which is actually quite nice. It's a short walk to the beach but they are sheltered from the cold lake winds and aren't bothered by the weekend crowds that descend on the beach.
Why is it that men never have the correct tools and the women get stuck holding things while the men fetch the correct tools? Ellen and I waiting for Rob.
Considering how crowded Sauble Beach can get, dogs are not allowed on the beach during the day. However a few short miles up the road in Oliphant the dogs are allowed on the beach and a lot of them took advantage of that fact. The beach at Oliphant is at a very shallow bay --- we walked across the bay and it didn't come over our knees. We also saw several trucks parked in the bay while people sat around them enjoying their time in the water. Plus we saw a truck drive across the bay to the island.
We introduced Rob and Ellen to geocaching --- Rob really enjoyed it, especially when he found the cache. Geocaching gave a purpose to walking plus there was the thrill of the find.
Downtown Sauble Beach.
Zaph also enjoyed the satisfaction of the find. He found a rubber ball outside of a dog park and claimed "finders keepers" and took the ball home..
