Oh Canada!

Well, we made it across Lake Huron to Tobermory, a cute little town at the tip of the Bruce Peninsula, where we are anchored in a beautiful little bay. The weather forecast for the crossing was a little dicey, but didn't include any big waves so we went for it. A storm chased us for a while, then apparently lost interest and passed south of us, leaving us only sprinkles. All of the boat parts are still functioning, including the new water pump that Westin helped me install the other day. Oops, I should say "Wes," not Westin. He hates to be referred to as Westin because his full name, Westin Marne makes him sound so much like a commercial for WEST MARINE, the most well known and respected boating supply company in the world, with almost 400 stores in the US and Canada. He doesn't want to toot their horn, so he's asked us to call him "Wes." Maybe he will work out. At least he doesn't eat much. Capt. Jeff

  2. This is a nice way to keep in the loop. I like being able to write comments. Very excited. I'd love to see some photos of Canada.
