The
Summer Solstice, or the longest day of the

gentle breeze and blue sky and sunshine.

Here are some more views of the water

June 1, 2006 Check out the NEW North Hatley Club Chat! Click on this link CHAT and tell us what you are thinking. Ask questions, post comments, what's on your mind? The lower tennis courts will be available
for play (weather permitting!) soon. The daily schedule is almost the same
as last year, except the courts will remain open later in the day, through
July 15. May 25, 2006 It is 5:00 PM and the sun is finally shining after 12 days. All signs are good for the weekend with perhaps a little rain tomorrow. Maybe now the tennis courts can be prepared. The lake is very high. As I walked by The Pilsen, the outside porch was under water "again" and the few docks that had been put in were being held down by ropes and rocks. Ah, spring! May 22, 2006 As one of my good friends recently said, "this is more like November than May". We are cold today, it is 41F degrees. No change to the above picture, it still looks the same. There is hope in the future though, by the weekend it should be warming up quite a bit. If any of you know of a person who would like to rent a cottage this summer there is a gorgeous one for rent down at Quebec Lodge. www.quebeclodge.com/cottage.htm A very energetic group of folks has just spent a week putting it together. A true community effort. All the funds generated from the rental will go towards the Re-imagine Quebec Lodge initiative. Even if "the sun don't shine" - the fireplace there will warm anyone's heart! May 16, 2006 Tennis News --- Len Barrett and Paul
Caron report that the Lower Courts are now being prepared and may be
available for play as soon as the May 20 long weekend, weather permitting.
The Upper Courts will be opened later in June. We are prioritizing the Lower
Courts to take advantage of their better water supply and hence easier
maintenance. May 15, 2006 It is cloudy and gray outside and the lake is acting as if it expects rain. According to the weather network, see the button below, we should expect rain for the next couple of days. Nothing like what our friends to the south and east of us are experiencing! If you have suggestions of what you might like to see on this page or on the website, please click the email button above. We would love to hear from you. Cottages are coming to life again after one of the mildest winters on record. The ice went out on the lake between 2:15 PM and 4:30 PM on April 12th after taking until mid-February to freeze. The ice fishermen said that it was approximately 10 inches thick so safe enough for them to walk on. We didn't see very many people walking on the ice at all. Would you? The boards are still on the club but there is activity as we get ready to open for another Hatley summer. Today work began on the upper courts so it would appear that some tennis might be played in the not too distant future. Cheers from the porch!

It rained harder than we have ever seen
yesterday and the lake came up very fast. Docks are now under water,
Dreamland
Park benches are sitting in water, and the chairs on the porch at
The Pilsen are floating. This morning's walk found folks beginning to
talk of going in search of the sun south of the border. Have faith,
the sun will shine again. In the meantime, a fire, a good book and
good friends will help pass the time.
is
the 158th day of the year in the Gregorian calendar (159th in leap years),
there are 207 days remaining, but wait, only 199 shopping days till ????
Found an interesting link to information about what happened on a certain
date in history, click on the date above and see what it has to say about today.
It is looking like rain again. We had two glorious days here, mid 80's
yesterday, and things started to dry out. Please click on the Chat
