Beautiful. So many beautiful places in North America that we couldn't see them all in 2 or 3 lifetimes.

Thanks for posting this...great photos. I have been on the Georgian Bay & seen houses like these...I think they call that the "10,000 Islands" area or is it the same?

My parents are there RIGHT NOW! They go there every year (usually) and rent a houseboat for a week. I have been there about 4 times growing up. It is beautiful there.

I vacation there just about every year, and have in fact fished the structure around the above pictured house, and pulled out quite a few fish. Beautiful area, love it in the summer. Wouldn't want to deal with it in the winter, it's bad enough here at the base of the Adirondacks...
