We took the bunny trail. No sign of bunnies though.

On Saturday July 7, 2007, Blue Mountain Village ski resort played host to the Thornbury-Clarksburg Rotary Club's 23rd Annual Blue Mountains Chili Cookoff. The ski resort doesn't sit idle in the summer, apparently, as the place was packed. Tasters wandered around with their spoons and tried samples from the twenty or so contestants, with names like "Harry Fartter" and "Hell's Kitchen". My vote went to the organic buffalo chili in booth number 1. (Buffalo, or bison, is raised locally.)
In the background, the ski lift was doing a brisk business taking bikers and their rented mountain bikes to the top of Blue Mountain, where it's all downhill from there.

If there are two things that define the Owen Sound area, and the Bruce Peninsula in general, at least naturally, they are surely snow, and sedimentary rock. The former falls in tremendous quantity due to lake effect, while the latter causes it to drain very poorly, instead encouraging the spring melt to tumble gleefully down the escarpment in the direction of our basement.
