Sounds like you had a very nice and relaxing weekend with good friends in a nice location! I need friends with nice cottages near water. I guess I need to start with making more friends where I live now.
The doggies must have had a wonderful time. How is the young more rambuncious one doing? Any new adventures?

Ellie's taking M/T/W off to work on the gardens. This afternoon we're planting a red maple in her mom's backyard.
Great minds think alike. I am taking Wed and Thurs off this week to garden. I have to get my veggies and annuals in.
Red maples are beautiful. What kind of red maple are you planting?
I planted a shrub called a dwarf cranberry viburnum. I thought it was a gap filler. I was very surprised to see huge ball shaped flowers this spring - it is absolutely gorgeous. Much like a snowball viburnum - but will only be 4-6 ft in height and width. Now I regret planting it in a corner - I may have to transplant it to a more visible location.
And my peonies are blooming for the first time - they are stunning. I am going to look for a tree peony this year.
It is so nice that summer and gardening season is here again. I think I need to buy a house in the southern hemisphere so I have continuous gardening seasons!
