Manotick in April

Terry and I recently drove to Manotick for breakfast.














This village, now officially part of Ottawa, retains its small town charm, in spite of encroaching subdivisions.













It was interesting to catch a glimpse of buildings that are usually hidden behind the leaves of trees...














 ... among them the home of a former neighbor.














The river was running high...














 ... and the Mill was undergoing renovations...














But down the street, at the Miller's Oven - a cafe run by seniors - all was normal!














We enjoyed a leisurely brunch - mushroom omlette and a home-made scone - served by student volunteers.
