Fenelon Falls Lock

 Speaking of Fenelon Falls, this coming Canada Day lands on a Tuesday this year, so A. G. & I are gonna be taking the Monday off as well and making it a 4 day long weekend.

With all this time to take advantage of, we are planing to do a mini trip to Fenelon Falls for that weekend. The working itinerary is to head to the bottom of Kirkfield Liftlock on Friday (3-4 hours from home) & spend the night there. Saturday we would continue on to Fenelon Falls Marina (2 hours travel time) & spend Saturday & Sunday nights there. Monday, we'd head back homeward & stay the night at one of the locks before Lake Simcoe & head home on Tuesday.

As well, you don't have to worry about going through the lock, as the marina is before the lock, right on Cameron Lake.

Here's some pics of the anticipated spots to whet your whistle;

Down Hill To Spring From Here

Well, it's all down hill from here, my friends, as the winter solstice occurs tomorrow (Saturday) marking the longest night of the year. The good news is that the days will start getting longer! I told you this winter would go by fast . . . 

 Only three days to the Big Day, so Merry Christmas to you all. Hopefully Santa has found all those good deals on the boating supplies we are after ;-) If not, the Boat Show is only three weeks away. That reminds me - where did I put that list. This time, it's A.G.'s turn :-)

 OK, up to now we've had the most snow & cold we've seen in a December in many years. I think it's time for another hot & wet photo of some summer fun! This one was taken during our summer holidays while we were in Young's Point at the beautiful Islandview Resort. It features none other than yours truly enjoying some cooling off, as the temperature was 88.7 degrees! Ahhhhhhh summer - boating & swimming . . . I love it!!!!

Stormy Weather


We encountered this approaching storm while heading out onto Cooks Bay. This was mid July, the weekend before we left for our summer holidays.

Ahhhhhhh, holidays . . . .

Le Photo Du Jour


Today's photograph was taken at our new digs, the first time we was there to look at it. A very momentous moment, to be sure.

Really looking forward to many more moments at that place!!
