We didn’t know we were so hip!

Last night David, Jean, Marilyn and I had dinner at the Drake Devonshire…or as it now commonly referred to as
“Drake on the Lake”.

If you were cycling with the Cyclopaths a few years back you will remember this spot fondly when it was the Devonshire Inn.  It was magically transformed last year into one of the hippest spots in Ontario and showing up on the international “hot lists” according to a Globe and Mail article in today’s paper!      We had a lovely evening and David said at the end of the night , “We have to come back here”…..I agree! IMG_2001IMG_2008IMG_1995IMG_2006IMG_1998

On Saturday David and I were in Simcoe County to scout out the cycling routes for the upcoming Lake Couchiching Adventure in early June.  A long day but worth it….found some fabulous routes among other interesting spots!  Forty – two Cyclopaths are doing this Great Escape June 1st – 4th.
