This made my day

Posted by andrea tomkins in: Ottawa

Whoever thinks to stick a Canadian flag atop a beaver lodge is exactly the kind of person I’d like to meet.

So Canadian eh?

Click the image to enlarge if you like. :) Happy Friday!

Saw it too on the Highway 7 drive, Thanksgiving weekend! Did you see the satellite dish stuck on there too? My kids laughed and laughed.

That’s not Highway 7 – it’s near Dunrobin. :)

The Obligatory Blurb

My name is Andrea and I live in Ottawa with my husband Mark and our dog Sunny who is kind of a big deal on Instagram. During the day I work as a freelance writer. I am a longtime Ottawa blogger and I've occupied this little corner of the WWW since 1999. The Fishbowl is my whiteboard, water cooler, and journal, all rolled into one. I'm passionate about healthy living, arts and culture, travel, great gear, good food, and sharing the best of Ottawa. I also love vegetables, photography, gadgets, and great design.

If you're so inclined, you can read more about me here.
