Back on our Trip!

We left the boat for a week at Penetanguishene, Ontario while away for Trent's funeral. The people at Bay Moorings Marina were so good to us. I think we got charged about half the normal rate. Anyway, we left Saturday morning for Georgian Bay, planning to cross a big part of it. But the winds were up. So we decided to anchor out in a cove before tackling the Bay the next morning. Last night, while watching the Olympics (and 8th gold medal award to Mark Phelps), we had a change of heart on the route to take. So instead of "sprinting" across Georgian Bay in two big chunks, we decided to take the channel up the northern perimeter. That picture above was our welcome to the channel.

A few miles down the "road" was this fish restaurant called Henry's. Great fried fresh (pickeral) fish! It must be pretty popular because there were about 4 seaplanes docked there as well.

Everywhere you look in this area could easily be suitable for a postcard picture.
Tonight, we are at a marina in Parry Sound. I think it's the last time we'll have internet access for a few days since the next town is Killarney at the beginning of the North Channel.
