What is Bayfield Ontario?

It is the sound of a frog chorus on a warm spring evening and the buzz of a cicada on a late summer’s afternoon. It is the feeling of bare feet on warm sand fooling waves as they rush against the shore. It is the scent of camp fire smoke drifting in the mist of a cool autumn night. It is the taste of a glass of wine while seated on a Main Street patio watching people slowly dissolve into a pace of life that many no longer believe can still exist.
