Back roads, views, waterfalls, trilliums

We had a small group on our drive. It worked out well, as you can see below. In particular, the weather turned very clear–perfect because one of the elements of this drive was the views. Everyone was surprised the weather turned nice, I guess. We had the roads to ourselves. I don’t recall encountering a single loud motorcycle on our entire journey!

The sun was bright and the sky was blue. Paul’s green convertible looks midnight blue in this picture.

Before we left, we had a look at some Saab sales material from the 1970s and 1980s. Back then, cars actually had colours. Different colours. Imagine that!

I put the more interesting pictures separately. The gallery requires clicking twice, which was a bit of a pain.

 

I think the extreme blue sky was playing tricks with my camera’s adjustments. Or maybe it was simply very, very blue.

We could't figure out how to get a Saab in there for scale.

Toronto in the distance. The lake was very, very blue. I don’t know if it was the light, or some byproduct of the winter we just had.
Trilliums were out.
