Labour Day was a sunny day off, so Charlie and I went for a stroll around the trails at the James H. Fullard Nature Reserve again. It's a gentle trail off Davis Lock Road with stairs on the hills and two lookouts - one over the lake, one over the marsh. The bonus was seeing two deer who crossed the path just ahead of us.   We've used this little table at Tipped a few times over the years. I sent it home with artist Edwina Wood, and it returned with a fish on top and a freshened-up finish. Now that it looks so smart, it's ready for its new home. There's one, and it is quite special.  One and special - this small doll buggy is darn cute too. Lovely for a young child to push around or perhaps to display in your home.  We received a new shipment of paper napkins. Darn cute fits here too!  While we're on the roll with small and cute, Deborah Lyall stopped by with a new smaller style of bag. It's got a zippered top and many dividers inside. Perfect as a toiletry bag or for your smaller crafting supplies. These make a great gift.  From our vintage collection, this leather MQ backpack-style purse is in great condition. Lots of compartments, and it keeps your hands free.  Last week I showed you shelves full of lovely sweaters. I thought it would help if I slipped a couple of them on so you can see the design and fit. I'm wearing a Large in this 100% wool sweater from mansted. It's a generous fit that should last for years to come.  Also from mansted, this boucle knit cardigan will keep you snuggly warm through the cold weather. It's soft 65% sheep wool, 35% alpaca and I'm wearing a large.  This is the one-size Dog Walker sweater from Canadian, woman-owned Eco Verde. Since it's called the Dog Walker, Charlie decided he had to get in on this one. The super cozy cowl-neck collar, long sleeves, and generous sizing made me want to keep it on! I think it will fit anyone from XS to XL - the sleeves are perfect for folding back if you don't have my long arms! Fall is the best time for walking in the woods,

 "Rob is one of the unique voices of North American music: a captivating performer, stellar songwriter, and a gifted storyteller. Rob's original material is a masterclass in songwriting; spare, essential lyrics that get at the meat of his topics with no filler. Lines like "I want to start a fight just to let you win" resonate with anyone that has ever navigated a long-term relationship. Rob is equally compelling as a music historian, with a keen sense of "songs that matter" from the early days of North American popular music. All of this delivered with one of the great voices of modern folk and his signature, hard-driving fingerstyle guitar." Thom Lambert, Haliburton Folk Society https://roblutes.com Doors open at 7 pm.
