Our friends were housesitting at Tatla Lake and invited us for the weekend. Mark's sister and her husband own the only piece of private -property on Tatla Lake and have recently built a house there. It's a half hour drive in from Tatla on a bumpy gravel road.
New house on left, old cabin on right, solar array extreme right.
We were impressed with their commitment to building a small house. It has only one bedroom upstairs and a small guest room in the basement. They are off the grid so everything is solar powered.
See the really thick (unfinished) walls? Proper window sills
We walked along the lakeshore 
To a point looking out over the lake.
Looking back toward the house and it's sheltering island:
In the evening a large flock of trumpeter swans flew in.
And settled on the lake.
Another walk with Nyxie the cat:
Leo and Mark used the sauna.
All in all a fun weekend.
