An Epic Fall Family Weekend in Hastings Highlands
It’s dark outside as I drop my bag on the floor of the Baptiste Lake cottage – “Aaahhhh. We made it!” My husband orients himself outside with a flashlight, my son lights a fire in the woodstove, and my daughter turns on the classic rock of 97.7 Moose FM radio while I unpack the groceries that will fuel the amazing weekend of activity we have planned. After settling in, we each grab a beverage, find a cozy spot on the couch, and switch on a movie to de-stress from the workweek and drive from the city. The fire crackles, owls hoot, and the wind softly blows leaves off the trees onto the roof of the cabin as we drift easily off to sleep.
