In honour of World Elephant Day, here’s a throwback visiting an elephant sanctuary in Chaing Mai, Thailand. ปางช้างแม่สา aka Maesa Elephant Camp is like a retirement camp for elephants that aren’t able to go back into the wild after they’ve worked. There are over 75 elephants and they do activities like soccer, basketball, and painting. I was so impressed with their painting skills!
Last couple days have been really relaxing. I have to remind myself what day it is. Yesterday I slept heaps. Feeling fresh today! Didn’t get anywhere on my glamping goals (it rained) but maybe today. On our way to rent a jet ski rn. Woot! Don’t worry mum, will be careful!
With love from the cottage.

Started the day w/ a cruise in the boat then came home and make some brekky. Whipped up a little fruit salad to keep in the fridge for healthy snacking.
Went to a HUGE cottage party in Port Carling last night. The property was massive, big cottage, boathouse, beach volleyball, BBQ, fire pit, and a funhouse to play in.
Came in from a nice float out in the water just now. It’s so warm, the lake feels like a pool.
This is my first blog post on the new computer. I’m so stoked to be up here and have 10 days to work on creative things. My new blog is on the works, I love the design and I hope you will too. It’s been years since I gave it an update. The current look and feel is very similar to when I first started casiestewart.com in 2005. The first site is still alive at casiestewart.blogspot.com. Working on this new machine feel like a Porsche or Ferrari compared to my little MacBook Air. Today Sean picked up a huge new monitor and comfy desk chair for the cottage, I’m ready to ROLL. I saw some amazing desk chairs on www.bestgamingchair.com/herman-miller-mirra-2-chair-review and I decided it was time for a new COMFY desk chair!
The view from where I’m sitting is the photo above.
I’m planning to put big 10 person tent on lawn and make a nice glamping hideaway. I attempted to do it on my own today (never having set up a tent) and gave up after a few minutes. I need help, I don’t know where everything is. This is me after a I made a Pina Colada and decided to go floating in the sun instead.
It’s almost the weekend. I’ve worked hard. I’m ready to reeeeeeeeelaxxxx! 
Looks like we’re gonna get some rain, I’m working on a blog makeover so I’m ok with that. Won’t feel bad missing sunshine to nerd out ON MY NEW COMPUTER! Sean picked it up for me yesterday and I can’t WAIT to tour around this amazingly fast little machine.
He also came home with meat pies from The Pie Comission. Seriously, what a dreamboat!
I’m so stoked. It’s been a few years since I upgraded my Mac Game and I’m proudly replacing my 11″ MacBook Air with a 13″ MacBook Pro. Welcome to the family! Sean recommended that I got an external monitor for my MacBook to make my life a bit easier so I’m looking at reviews on bestbezellessmonitor and will keep you updated on whether I get one or not! I’m also going to be a lot more careful with this one, as I know that they’re susceptible to cracked screens if not looked after properly – I don’t want to have to fork out to repair it any time soon.
All my Apple gadgets over the years have been named after famous men in history. This guy is yet to be named…
Went to the Indie Ale House last night. Food was really good! She moved to the junction recently so I have another friend in the hood. Woot! 
The desserts, so good. 
Loving my hair short. Getting it trimmed a BIT shorter today too.
Rode in my first TESLA yesterday. What a car! 
It’s so fast, smart, good looking, efficient, I can’t get enough.
Snapped this out the sunroof. Beautiful day! 
Back seat is quite roomy and with TWO trunks you can fit heaps of clothes and food for a weekend getaway.
Three cheers for LOOOOONG weekend. Hope you’ve got some plans to make the most of it. Sending sunshine to you across the Internet. ??????
