Memories of vacations at the lake were a big inspiration for my Fortune Bay series.
On the first long weekends of the summer season – 24th of May in Canada (the Queen’s birthday, I know, how quaint) and Memorial Day in the U.S. – it’s time to celebrate the return of carefree summer days.
The vignetting and scratches of these family photos captured from old 8 mm film h
ave the nostalgic feel of silent films. Memories you can hold in your hand, they will be familiar to family and friends who spent childhood summers in Ontario’s Muskoka, and I hope will resonate with other 
readers as well.
I’d love to hear your summer vacation memories. 🙂
